Thoughts are?
The case to be argued next week was brought by Abigail Fisher, a white woman who was denied admission to the University of Texas at Austin, and who says the university’s consideration of race violated the Constitution’s equal protection clause.
The Supreme Court has forbidden the use of quotas, fixed percentages and other efforts to mirror the racial composition of the general population in admissions decisions. But it has allowed schools to take account of race as one factor among many in an effort to achieve a “critical mass” of minority students.
