The same crowd that thinks affirmative action is bad is going to hate this.

Based on the article it sounds like she earned a walk on spot.

Why? Earning a spot is the way it should be.

Because it's usually not affirmative action they're truly angry about. It's an excuse for more racism and sexism.

I hate affermative action and simular programs like the one that gives less qualified men the spots of better qualified woman on norwegian psycology studies.

And i thinkthis is great. I am a bit concerned that she apperantly was so great, cause that kinda implies there migth have been other woman who were good enougth but not incredably great like her that were denied a spot.
