Summary
The Trump administration has accused the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law of discriminating against White and Asian applicants while favoring Black applicants, violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act. The Department of Justice's findings indicate Black applicants had significantly higher odds of admission and lower LSAT scores compared to White and Asian admitted students. Berkeley Law denies the allegations, stating its admissions comply with federal law and Proposition 209 by not considering race.
