UT challenge to Supreme Court

<p>Affirmative</a> Action - Could Justice Alito's Vote Change the Game? - Yahoo! News</p>

<p>A girl said she was not accepted because she is white.</p>

<p>

Exactly. I’ve never understood why college apps, especially those for public universities, ask about race. What difference does it make?</p>

<p>Yeah, but you can sometimes tell with last names…which sucks.</p>

<p>college are funded if they accepted a certain number of minority but I am dont see how UT can use AA if the demographic African American 4.6 %, Asian American 17.6%, Non-Hispanic White Americans 50.6% Hispanic American 20%, Native American 0.3% International 4.7%. Hispanics Americans and African Americans UT percentage are below the Texas Census. I know other college use and abuse AA but I don’t think UT discriminate on race but ranking :confused: I always pick “prefer not to answer” and if I am force to choose a race like in UCLA app i pick Mixed Race or other</p>
