Malcolm, here you go My antedotal evidence from last night, hearing students talk about how close friends and parents talk about co-workers get angry that they had higher test scores while their "Black" friends got race-based scholarships was powerful. I think there is plenty of evidence to support my claim...The recent faculty discussion we had in my department over hiring a Black faculty member who might not be as "qualified" was a hotly emotional issue. Trust, this is a core controversy on the level of abortion in terms of emotion, and unique to college students. I feel stronger about this than desegregation in the core of an intercollegiate debate topic.
