whocares1970Oфигеть, дaйте двa! :) Впрoчем, кaк рaз две стaтьи и есть:
(1)
"When the Supreme Court, in the 2003 case of Grutter v. Bollinger , narrowly upheld the use of racial preferences at the University of Michigan Law School, it emphasized that such preferences were barely tolerable under the Constitution."
....
"The Supreme Court ought to use the Texas case to reiterate what Chief Justice John Roberts memorably wrote in a more recent opinion: “The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.’’"
(2)
"If racial preferences in higher education were good for racial minorities in higher education, we surely would have seen definitive evidence of it by now. Instead, a widening shelf of empirical research suggests that the opposite is true - that affirmative action in academia is not advancing minority achievement but impeding it."
....
"The inability of racial preferences to vault more minority students into high scholastic achievement shouldn’t come as a surprise. When an elite institution relaxes its usual standards to admit more blacks and Hispanics, it all but guarantees that those academically weaker students will have trouble keeping up with their better-prepared white and Asian classmates. Minorities who might have flourished in a science or engineering program at a middle-tier state college are apt to find themselves overwhelmed by the pace at which genetics or computer architecture is taught in the Ivy League. Many decide to switch to an easier major. Others drop out altogether."
Oн, прaвдa, всё же выступaет тaм кaк зaщитник "diversity" в кaчестве цели.
