		<description><![CDATA[The New York Times blog The Choice is running a series on a book edited by Richard Kahlenberg, Affirmative Action for the Rich. On the first post, the editor himself left this comment: (emphasis added) The preference is provided based on lineage, which is un-American, and, according to three chapters in the book, is probably [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two major differences between legacy preferences and racial preferences are: 1) legacy preferences are racially neutral, although they might have a disparate impact on certain racial minorities; 2) the former are legal. Granting special treatment to children of alumni isn&#8217;t illegal; discriminating against individuals based on skin color is illegal. Richard D. Kahlenberg of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Racial preferences proponents in Chicago are panicking, if you believe this story, over a plan to consider a student&#8217;s socioeconomic status rather than his skin color when assigning to magnet and selective government schools. In recent years, courts have ordered school districts to keep race out of the assignment equation. For instance, the U.S. Supreme [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this month I blogged about legacy preferences. I took a stand and wrote that if race preferences opponents want to be consistent in our arguments against skin color preferences, we must oppose legacy preferences.

		<description><![CDATA[Why should the son or daughter of a university alumni receive preferential treatment from the admissions committee over other applicants? Why should a black applicant receive preferential treatment over white or Asian applicants? The American Civil Rights Institute (ACRI) opposes both kind of preferences for the same reason: they are unconstitutional. Inside Higher Ed briefly [...]]]></description>
