Yes, in Thomas Sowell's Affirmative Action Around the World

"They tend to benefit primarily the most fortunate among the preferred group (e.g. black millionaires), often to the detriment of the least fortunate among the non-preferred groups (e.g. poor whites)"

Thomas Sowell is far from an objective observer here. If this is a true claim, then I'd like to see a stat thrown out.

If we're just comparing anecdotes, as someone who attended one of these "elite" universities, this didn't seem to be the case at all.
