A lawsuit filed this week accuses the University of California of racial discrimination in undergraduate admissions by favoring Black and Latino students over Asian American and white applicants. A group called Students Against Racial Discrimination sued Monday in federal court,

Case alleges that UC schools show preference to Hispanic and Black applicants, and seeks to stop the schools from asking about race during admissions process.

The state’s elite campuses, prohibited from using race-based admissions for decades, are now admitting more Black and Hispanic students. A new group is suing, arguing the university system is cheating.
