Introduction: Bakke-Hopwood: Errors or Exaggerations?

Zirkel, Perry A.

Journal of Law and Education, v29 n3 p353-54 Jul 2000

In the July 1999 issue of this journal (EJ 591 141) Philip T. K. Daniel and Kyle Edward Timken contend that the Fifth Circuit "Hopwood" decision overstepped its authority by rejecting Justice Powell's opinion in "Bakke." Introduces article by Michael Rosman (EA 537 542) that takes strong issue with Daniel and Timken contending that they misapprehended the substantive meaning and procedural posture of the case. (Contains 12 footnotes.) (MLF)
