[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Affirmative-action for need? How is that insulated from race? [/quote] Do you really think specific racial minorities are the only low-income people out there?? :roll: Seriously, race is a protected class, which is why schools can not discriminate on that basis. Income level is not a protected class. Schools can choose to prioritize whatever income level or economic status they wish. They just can't use income level or need as a vehicle for selecting one race over another. Assessing need should be race-blind or the numbers somehow should show even-handness (or at least not a hard skew) on the variable of race within a particular income group. [/quote]
