Does Princeton discriminate against Asian Americans?

To:  Princeton University

Princeton University recently rejected an Asian American applicant with a perfect SAT score. A study published by Princeton's own researchers concluded that an Asian-American applicant must score 50 points higher on the SAT than other applicants just to have the same chance of admission as the other applicants. (http://opr.princeton.edu/faculty/Tje/EspenshadeSSQPtII.pdf)

Is Princeton discriminating against Asian American applicants?

Princeton refuses to release test scores and admission rates by ethnicity, saying the public has not asked for the information.

As a member of the public, I request that Princeton release average test scores and admission rates on its applicants by ethnic group (African American, Asian American, Hispanic, and White).

If Princeton refuses to do so, what is it trying to hide?

(If you graduated from Princeton, please indicate school and year in the comments section.)

Sincerely,
