The Effects of Bakke on Selective Admissions

Howe, Harold, II

Change, 10, 8, 13,61, Sep 78

It is noted that the Supreme Court's Bakke decision does not require affirmative action in admissions--it merely allows it. The Court's support for the use of race as a permissible criterion in university admissions is no guarantee to minority persons that they will receive special consideration in competition with whites.
