Well, as I understand the decision, it was kind of a split decision. And, I think the Court got it pretty much right.

My opinion since I first became aware of the situation (and argued on a previous thread) is that the twenty points given in the undergraduate situation was excessive, and in fact, unfair. If the number of points had been more reasonable, I probably wouldn't have objected.

On the other hand, the way the Law School handled their situation seems much more even handed.

I've seen that Affirmative Action was (and in many cases still is) necessary, and I've seen it cause some injustices in itself.

In the long run, however, no system is perfect. The best of all possible worlds is to get the point where Affirmative Action is moot because it is no longer needed.
