>捍卫你孩子公平竞争入学名校的机会
>历史性的时刻已经到来了：2/21/2012，美国最高法院决定审理用“族裔”的理由来提
高亚裔和白人高校入学门槛的做法是否违宪。您--关爱孩子未来的父母--现在就可以花
一分钟时间来帮助孩子增大孩子上他们理想大学的机会。请您立即投票赞成（FOR）80-
20全美亚裔教育基金会的民调书，清楚明白地表明亚裔在这件案子上的立场。

>资料显示，亚裔在美国要比其他族裔成绩优秀许多才能上同样的学校。要上同样的名
校，亚裔SAT要考1550分，白人1410分，而非裔只需要1100分*（英文和数学满分是1600
）。亚裔入学这么高的门槛使得许多亚裔的大学申请者非常害怕，有些干脆拒绝列出他
们是亚裔—其实学校一看名字还是能知道哪些孩子是亚裔。。。
>
>下面几周内，我们需要征集到至少五万个签名，让结果写入Amicus Curiae (“法庭之
友”的文书)作为证据资料递交最高法院。我们要表明亚裔赞同以考生的综合素质（而
不是族裔）作为美国高校的招生标准。综合素质包括申请学生现在的学术成绩和未来可
能的成功潜力，例如申请人是否能在不利的生活环境中仍能不懈努力等(i.e. Overcome
adversity under socio-economic constraint). 我们相信这样的定位能给所有的考
生提供一个公平竞争的机会，也能给学校足够的弹性来制定他们的教育的目标。
>
>之所以要五万个签名来支持这项活动是因为现在最高法院不知道亚裔作为少数族裔在
这个案例上是支持还是反对高校取消‘族裔’作为录取标准的。通过我们初步的调查，
绝大多数的亚裔是支持取消‘族裔’这个录取指标的。但是我们需要确实的数据来证明
亚裔的立场，所以80-20全美亚裔教育基金会设计了这个民调书。

>如果您愿意让你孩子抬头做人，在申请书上大大方方承认自己是亚裔，而不惧怕会受
歧视而上不了理想的学校的话，请现在就到下面的网站来签名赞成80-20的民调书，并
请您的其他的亚裔朋友都来签名。父母请各签一个名，有自由意志的学龄孩子也可以签
名！（必须是绿卡或公民才可以投票，谢谢合作。）

decided to review a pending lawsuit that challenges the prevalence use of
strong racial preferences in college admission.

admission standard. To receive equal consideration for the top colleges,

> 1550 for Asians = 1410 for Whites = 1100 for Blacks.
>The strong racial preferences instilled such a fear among Asian American
applicants that many refuse to state their ethnicities in college
applications. (Well, most of our LAST NAMES are a dead giveaway!) If you
want your children to face such a harsh reality, then do nothing. Otherwise
please take ONE minute to cast your vote.

>We aim to gather 50,000 signaturesand submit this national survey results
to the Supreme Court. We will submit an Amicus Curiae (“friend of the
court” brief) advocating a race-neutral, merit-based college admission
policy; with broadly defined merit to include current scholastic achievement
and evaluated future potential of an applicant. This nuanced position
would provide fair and equitable opportunity to all applicants; while still
provide the schools broad discretion in defining education objectives.
>
>Please fire up all your Asian American friends and families to vote. The
clock is ticking; the deadline to submit a legal briefing is less than two
months away. Every single vote counts. Yes, parents should sign as two
separate individuals, school children counts too if they understand the
concept and have an opinion. | x******1

发帖数: 3876 | 8 As of now 80-20 has very little political influence. Gathering signatures
means nothing. If you really want to influence US politics, fire your
current board members, you guys have too many teachers and professors
running your organization, get some REAL politicians on board, and hire
professional lobbyists and push for policy changes in congress. When that
day comes, I will gladly open my checkbook and make political contribution
and become your Honorary Life Member.
