[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't call it more equitable. Most colleges/ universities in the U.S. do not practice affirmative action. Those that do do not have quotas, merely a consideration of different factors that they have decided are desirable and in short supply at their university. So a Historically Black College may give some preference to a white student who is applying while Dartmouth may give preference to a Navajo applicant and a small, liberal arts school in Minnesota or Iowa may give preference to male applicants or Asian-Americans. Oh, and many of these schools give preference on SES, first-generation college student and geographic diversity. Of course, none of these preferences is anywhere as high as being able to catch a football at some universities but I digress...[/quote]
