Response to the following:
In view of the fact that society historically has favored males over females, and whites over people of color, would you agree that white males have received more affirmative action than anyone? Why or why not?
Should affirmative action include only disadvantaged categories of minorities (such as African-Americans or Native-Americans) and exclude more affluent categories (such as Japanese-Americans)? Why or why not?
Should state universities admit applicants with an eye toward advancing minorities in order to lessen racial inequality or should admittance be based solely on merit and achievement of each individual student?
Do you think the goal of advancing minorities is more or less important than the goal of admitting the most qualified individuals? Explain your answer.
