College Admissions Post-Michigan

I attended a press conference today given by AAAS and NACME for a new book they'd put out about how to handle college admissions in the "post-Michigan" era. This refers to the Supreme Court decision that Michigan can use affirmative action in college admissions, or rather, that diversity is an important factor in admissions decisions.

The book is called Standing Our Ground: A Guidebook for STEM Educators in the Post-Michigan Era. The press conference was really interesting, and big name people were there to present information. It'll be really interesting to see how colleges handle the need for diversity on campuses.
