The Education Exchange: Is This Discrimination?

by Paul E. Peterson with Adam J. Whitevia The Education Exchange
Monday, October 15, 2018

Adam White, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution, and director of the Center for the Study of the Administrative State at George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School, joins Paul E. Peterson to discuss the legal issues involved.

Lies Of Affirmative Action At Harvard

quoting Thomas Sowellvia Powerline
Sunday, October 14, 2018

Writing in the Claremont Review of Books, Thomas Sowell commented: “Sander and Taylor have written an outstanding book that deserves to be read and pondered in many places for many years. They have performed a major service for all those who have an open mind on affirmative action, however modest the number of such people may be—and a still more important service for those who think that black students on campus should be there to advance their own education and lives, not to serve in a role much like that of movie extras, whose presence enhances the scene for others.”
