[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does URM stand for[/quote] Under-represented minority: a member of a minority group whose presence in a micro-population (e.g., a college) is statistically lower than that minority group's statistical presence in the relevant population. At law, this is one factor suggesting potential adverse impact discrimination, thus requiring an examination of systemic practices that may be contributing to the unintentional underrepresentation, and remedial efforts to increase that minority presence in the relevant applicant pool.[/quote]
