students and to provide for diversity in the program.
The first Supreme Court case addressing the constitutionality of affirmative action examined admissions
practices at the University of California at Davis. In Regents of the University of California v Bakke (1978), the
court ruled that the use of race as the sole determinant of admission to the medical school was
unconstitutional. The intent of the program was to provide access to this graduate program for minority
students and to provide for diversity in the program.
Were these goals laudable? Why or why not?
Are there other ways to achieve these goals?
