[quote=Anonymous]Entirely predictable. Affirmative action has failed miserably and may well be contributing to persistent racial stereotypes. Affirmative action has led to a constellation of "diverse" campuses at which the black and Latino students are BY DESIGN less qualified than the white and Asian students on campus. The long journey to a truly color blind society cannot even begin until we end legally sanctioned discrimination by race. I'm all for helping kids from lower SES backgrounds, but the children of black lawyers and doctors who were educated in elite private schools should NOT be given preference over the first generation college applicant from a family of white coal miners in West Virginia. Race is NOT a reliable proxy for low SES.[/quote]
