Episode 27 -Affirmative Action - for Black and Brown students - is Dead.

It’s 2023, yet it eerily feels like 1963. At the behest of a 6-3 vote by the Supreme Court last week, higher education, decades of diversity initiatives and most importantly, our students and their access to selective admission to PWI colleges just took a major blow. The news is still swirling, no concrete action plan has been implemented to combat this and many people are just frustrated, dismayed and confused. While we don’t have all the answers, we do have some. Understanding the Choices and the Application to Admission podcast has been expecting this for months, and we’ve been doing our due diligence to stay abreast of all the elements of the case. We have our own opinions which we will share and we’re additionally grateful that our friend and SCOTUS case scholar, Marie Bigham, has joined us for another conversation about it. This was impromptu but important. Listen, learn and let’s keep the dialogue going on IG and LinkedIn.
