To fully understand the problems revolving around race-based admission programs in various universities, one must first understand how this issue first developed, as well as what affirmative action is. Affirmative action is a policy also known as positive discrimination, in other words, it strives to favor people who are a minority, such as, people of color. This is an important issue as it affects legislators, colleges, but most importantly future college students. For this issue, there are…

On October 12, 1977, a thirty-five-year-old white male by the name of Allan Bakke took the University of California Davis Medical School to the California Supreme Court for rejecting his admission into the school “because of his race”; he believed his rights had been violated under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The University of California Davis Medical School reserved sixteen spots for minorities…

Affirmative action policies have been the topic of debate amongst universities for quite some time now. Many question whether or not using race as a factor in the admissions process is legitimate, and some people like Ronald Dworkin attempt to back up the claim that it is. Throughout this paper, I will analyze Dworkin’s argument by first stating it, then evaluating it, and finally responding to it. Ultimately, I will show that Dworkin may be right, but I still believe using race as a factor does…

A majority of the discussion surrounding the Fisher III decision is focused upon what implications it has on affirmative action jurisprudence. Opponents of race-conscious admissions programs argue that Fisher III effectively raises the standard and makes strict scrutiny truly strict. Proponents, on the other hand, argue that the Court’s decision in Fisher III did not have a tangible effect on the court’s analysis of racial considerations by University admission officers. Derek W. Black, in his…

Quavian Belton Biochemistry I Dr.Nicholas Panasik October 6, 2015 PCR Optimization Abstract A Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a reaction that is set to catalyze the amplification of a copy of a piece of DNA. The aim of this lab was to optimize a PCR reaction by finding out the optimum concentration of MgCl2 needed.

In the article “Does Affirmative Action Do What It Should?” an interesting alternate perspective concerning affirmative action is presented. In the article, Dan Slater starts off by describing affirmative action. They are a set of policies used by universities across the nation as a means to recruit minority students whose predecessors have been subject to racial discrimination within the United States. These practices have been put into place to “even-out” the overwhelmingly off-balance number…

Another pillar of support for affirmative action is the fact that it is still upheld and supported by the courts. Out of the fifty states in the nation, eight states currently ban race-based affirmative action at all public universities. These states are California, Washington, Michigan, Nebraska, Arizona, New Hampshire, Connecticut, and Oklahoma. The 2016 court case Fisher v. UT Austin upheld affirmative action within universities. In the supreme court opinion, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy said…

Affirmative Action create reverse discrimination. The statement that Affirmative Action doesn’t work is quite frankly, ridiculous. Several studies have documented important gains in racial and gender equality as a direct result of affirmative action (Bowen & Bok, 1998; Murrell & Jones, 1996). For example, according to a report from the U.S. Labor Department, affirmative action has helped 5 million minority members and 6 million White and minority women move up in the workforce ("Reverse…

But for how long are we as a country going to allow for this reverse discrimination to take place. After all, is this not what we are trying to get away from? Are we not trying to eventually become a country that is free of racial discrimination? Anyway, it is unconstitutional, but affirmative action was necessary…
