Affirmative action is an issue of much contention in recent times.
In the wake of judicial decisions limiting or eliminating preferential treatment for certain groups, many see a need for a new framework in which to think about according preferences. The merits and de-merits of these alternatives will be the subject of what promises to be a strong debate. Featured panelists will include Professor Patricia Williams and Richard Kahlenberg. This event is free and open to the public. More detailed information about panelists and a full schedule of the event will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
