These statistics suggest that once one gets to the bottom half of American law schools, well less than half of African American matriculants ever become attorneys. This is all, of course, a result of admissions policies pursued in the name of "racial justice."

Couldn't this possibly mean that there are too many law schools, the existence of which is perpetuated by taking marginal candidates of all races, rather than necessarily having
anything to do with race? The one thing the article doesn't mention is what the statistics are for non-black students in the same schools. Obviously, even the top-rated schools have some form of affirmative action policy, and the results are considerably better.
Not really wanting to start an argument about it, but the picture presented is woefully incomplete.
