diversity on college campuses by providing equal access to education for women and minorities.

I strongly disagree with what Affirmative Action is known as in our society meaning aiding those whose who feel discriminated in other words,” giving special consideration to minorities and women”. As the opposition to affirmative action and the special treatments granted to these so called deprived minorities, affirmative actions should end before the end of the next presidential term.
