Student to appeal Kamehameha lawsuit dismissal


The Star-Bulletin reports: "A non-Hawaiian student has appealed a judge's decision to dismiss the student's lawsuit to overturn the Kamehameha Schools' Hawaiian-preference admission policy. In legal papers submitted to U.S. District Court yesterday, attorneys Eric Grant and John Goemans said they are appealing their case to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco. The much-anticipated move comes less than a month after U.S. District Judge Alan Kay upheld the estate's century-old admission policy on the grounds that it has the legitimate purpose of remedying historical injustices and existing economic woes suffered by Hawaiian people."

And in a Star-Bulletin letter, Lisa Noelani Robbins points out the ironies in the other KS admissions case.
