The problem with this is that, for engineering schools, males VASTLY outnumber females in applications. Ethnicity-wise, Asians and whites also outnumber the other ethnicities by a significant margin. If you want a diverse student body, you have to go out of your way to look for those that can fill the niches you're looking for. It's not just looking for students that can survive the classes, you also want students who can contribute to the student life. And you do not want a class comprised of 10% females, 90% males.

Who cares? Why should a black woman get preferential treatment over an asian man?

I would be ok with preferring a low-income person over a high-income person, but why should the asian man be penalized for the way he was born?
