Here is the link to an article that was published in the New York Times that I thought would be fitting for the class:
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/22/opinion/sunday/the-affirmative-action-war-goes-on.html?scp=1&sq=college%20diversity&st=cse
This article talks about several lawsuits across the country that have rejected the use of race as a factor in college admissions in some areas as well as another case in which race is allowed to be used as a factor. All of these cases may soon appear before the Supreme Court. Given the current makeup of the Court it is possible that colleges will not be able to use race as a factor in their admissions process. Should this happen, what might be some other ways that colleges can continue to increase racial diversity?
