Why Affirmative Action in American Colleges and Universities Should Be Constitutional.
Katyal, Neal Kumar
Journal of Blacks in Higher Education, n39 p96-103 Spr 2003
Shows why prior rulings of a key Supreme Court justice are not in conflict with a final ruling that race may be considered as one factor in admissions to higher education. Discusses the Supreme Court's decision to hear the cases on affirmative action policies at the University of Michigan, asserting that affirmative action in the university setting will be upheld as constitutional.
