Reduction of Minority Public University Access in California: An Analysis of the Long-Term Human Rights Implications.

Siler, Michael J.

Journal of Intergroup Relations, v25 n3 p16-33 Fall 1998

Explores the political and social reasons behind the denial of affirmative action at the University of California and analyzes the probable impact and human rights effects of the policy. Because the state has not allocated sufficient funds to improve elementary and secondary education for Blacks and Latinos, their numbers will inevitably decline in the state university system. (SLD)
