After Hopwood: Weighing the Legal Implications for College Admissions.
Douvanis, Gus
College Board Review, n184 p6-11,27 Spr 1998

Colleges have a right to determine what percentage of the students will be admitted automatically. Admissions officers violate the law only when they use race as a proxy for other legitimate applicant attributes. (MSE)
