Affirmative action goes back to SCOTUS?
Affirmative action goes back to SCOTUS?
The majority-conservative high court is believed to be considering whether to cut back, or end entirely, race as a criteria in higher education admissions decisions.

[I think AA has served the country well. It has leveled the playing field for many people and given many a much needed opportunity to have a better life. It has however had a negative affect on many students with better marks who feel they are being punished because of their color. Is it still necessary? I think so but I know many people, including blacks, think it is insulting these days to have such a program. What do you think? Should it go....or stay?]
