Research conducted over a 25-year period concerning the needs and problems of African American students at a large, predominantly white university was used to defend a reverse-discrimination lawsuit against that university. The plaintiff claimed that the past effects of discrimination had been ameliorated and that the affirmative active programs were no longer needed. (JPS)
