Should Race be a Factor in College Admissions?

A recent court case is putting affirmative action back in the spotlight.  Several African American and Latino students in California are hoping the court will allow universities to consider race in college admissions.  Currently, due to Proposition 209, California universities do not consider race as a deciding factor in college admissions.

The students who filed the case argue that the high schools they attended didn't adequately prepare them for admission standards.  They believe that allowing affirmative action will increase the number of minority students on state campuses.
