Bill would allow state colleges to consider race
"SACRAMENTO, Calif.—The California Assembly has approved a bill that would allow the state's public universities to consider race, gender and other demographic characteristics when they admit students.
The bill, AB2047, passed on a 44-24 vote Thursday and now moves to the Senate. It would apply to the University of California and California State University systems.
Democratic Assemblyman Ed Hernandez, who introduced the bill, says the legislation is needed to address the education gap in California. Currently, the state's black and Latino students trail whites and Asians in college attainment.
But opponents say the measure violates Proposition 209, a voter initiative that banned public institutions from considering race or gender in admissions or employment. They also say such ethnic classifications are outdated"
Asa ca dragii mei,daca sunteti albi sau asiatici si intentionati sa mergeti la UC sau sau un Cal State mai bine va orientati spre alte universitati!Sau chiar un alt stat! California devine tot mai stramta!:(.

Asta-i penibila! La fel ca treaba cu pompierii (li se plateste salariul in urma negrilor si hispanicilor ce au vrut sa intre in fire department si n-au luat examenu... ca vezi Doamne au fost discriminati. nu stiu cum se face, dar asiaticii nu-s discriminati... oare de ce? pt ca asiaticii cand vor o pozitie merg acasa si sa pregatesc sa intre pe pozitia respectiva!)
