Oh. I thought it was that due to being black they weren't being admitted.
President Lyndon Johnson said in 1965, "You do not take a person who, for years, has been hobbled by chains and liberate him, bring him up to the starting line of a race and then say you are free to compete with all the others, and still just believe that you have been completely fair." President Johnson's speech eloquently stated the rationale behind the contemporary use of affirmative action programs to achieve equal opportunity, especially in the fields of employment and higher education. White men make up only 48% of the college educated workforce, yet they make up 96% of America's CEO positions,86% of Law Firm partnerships and 85% of tenured college positions. Could you explain that please? -Gel -----Original Message----- From: Dana the theory I believe was that due to racism blacks were not meeting admission criteria.
