Law school quotas?

This is really weird. Today I was talking to a colleague who said that she was rejected from law school because they had quotas for gender and minorities. As in, she got excluded because she was female and a minority. Is that strange or what?

Now we must not discriminate against the white men, dontcha know. This whole quota thing is out of hand, but don't we have to do something to give a hand up to those less fortunate?

All I know is that for myself, as a minority in my field (a female engineer), I don't want everyone saying the only reason I'm successful is because I was given preferential treatment for being a woman.
