美国司法部指控UCLA法学院在招生过程中非法基于申请人种族进行区别对待，对白人和亚裔申请者造成歧视，同时偏袒黑人和西班牙裔申请者1。司法部民权部门主任Harmeet Dhillon表示，该法学院运营"两层级招生体系，录取门槛根据申请人肤色上下调整"1。这是特朗普政府对多所美国大学招生程序的持续审查之一1。
司法部指控涉及2023年、2024年和2025年的招生周期1。根据提供的数据，被录取的黑人申请者的平均LSAT成绩低于被录取的白人申请者1。调查还发现，招生工作人员在"多样性招生开放日"等招聘活动中指导申请者在文书中披露种族信息1。
UCLA法学院对这些指控予以否认，称其招生过程基于全面的功绩评估1。此次指控发生在2023年最高法院裁决禁止高等教育招生中的平权法案之后1。特朗普政府今年早些时候曾试图强制高校发布包含申请人和录取学生种族及性别的数据，但联邦法官在8月颁布初步禁令阻止了这一要求，称政府"仓促混乱"地推行该政策1。
The U.S. Department of Justice has charged UCLA Law School with illegally discriminating against white and Asian applicants while favoring Black and Hispanic candidates during admissions in 2023, 2024, and 2025.1 According to the allegations, admitted Black applicants scored lower on average on the LSAT examination than admitted white applicants.1 The Justice Department claims that admissions staff directed applicants to disclose their race in application essays during events such as "diversity admissions open houses."1
Harmeet Dhillon, director of the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, contended that UCLA Law School operates a "two-tiered admissions system with acceptance thresholds adjusted up and down based on applicant skin color."1 UCLA Law School has denied the allegations, asserting that its admissions process relies on comprehensive merit-based evaluation.1 This action represents part of the Trump administration's broader examination of university admissions procedures across the United States.1 The charges follow a 2023 Supreme Court ruling that prohibited affirmative action in higher education admissions.1
