[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the PP who mentioned the lawsuit at ATS, it was brought by one (or more) parents who objected to a lottery that was weighted to give preference to minority students. Information here: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/local/daily/jan99/race25.htm To make sure that at least some minority and lower SES students are included in admission, ATS gives automatic admission to the students enrolled in the VPI program located at ATS. I think it's 16 students or so. [/quote] VPI is based on economic status, not minority. It just happens that most of the VPI students are from minority backgrounds. [/quote]
