AG Lynch "pleased" that SCOTUS upheld affirmative action program at UT "ensuring diversity in higher education."pic.twitter.com/kWeemhfdKV
when did "affirmative action" and "diversity' become synonymous?
When racism blocked many opportunities for qualified minorities. #LegacyAdmissions #NepotismInWorkplace
That's diversity, not affirmative action.
One is the consequence of the other. America needs both.
Totally disagree. Affirmative action does not = diversity. Diversity is a byproduct but def not the best way to achieve it.
RACISM in America is alive and well.... thanks #SCOTUS
As long as race is considered country will not move forward on racism.
Should public Division 1 colleges basketball/football programs have affirmative action for athletic scholarships for whites now?
well considering 65% of whites make up all athletic scholarships. There's that.
I clearly stated Football and basketball. Former being largest single source of scholarships. Minorities makeup 57% and 67%
u picked 2 sports to validate your numbers while forgetting the rest of the sports programs. Fact - 65% go to wht students
1st your numbers are wrong. Afr Americans are 25-30% D1 all Athletic scholarships, but makeup 14% of US population.
And Football and basketball is where disproportionality comes from. If gov't wants public institutions to reflect America...
