Increasing Diversity in the Absence of Affirmative Action
Richard Cherwitz
Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, v56 n1 p12-14 2024
In this article, the author argues that given the Supreme Court's recent decision to ban affirmative action, there is much to be done to maintain and increase diversity in a race-neutral admissions environment. Those who oversee admissions/enrollment planning and strategic enrollment management must find innovative ways to accomplish this. The author offers at least one viable approach. However, prior to discussing this approach, the author first assesses how well administrators have done in producing a diverse class of students using the previously legal tools of affirmative action.
