Considering Class: College Access and Diversity.
Journal Article
Overview
abstract
The article discusses the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in the Court case Fisher v. University of Texas regarding college admissions policies. The Court upheld that race-conscious affirmative action could be used only when no race-neutral approach achieve racial diversity in education. It suggests an admissions strategy which demonstrates that class-based affirmative action efforts are valuable for increasing socioeconomic diversity and maintain racial diversity in school.
