[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Because what the Supreme Court was doing was NARROWING the criteria that was previously in place re: Affirmative Action due to the UT at Austin suit. The letter was a reminder to colleges that the ruling essentially said they could indeed still use race as a criteria for admissions decisions. In short, the Administration was pissed at the narrowing of the criteria.[/quote] Do you think the Administration wrongly explained the Supreme Court decision? If so, in what way? [/quote] I think what they did was wrong because a letter to colleges about the decision can easily be seen as a form of coercive pressure. Reminding them they can still use race as a basis for admissions shows a clear agenda.[/quote]
