I think it can be used for good, just like in the Abigail Fisher case. But, other than that, I think it's used too often by reverse racist hate mongers to get their way to threaten legal action against giant conglomerates. It's a double edged sword.

Affirmative action is racism. I think it's appaling how most colleges participate in this program.

Essentially, what the people who push it are really saying is "Black people can't do as well on tests, so we're going to make in easier for them to get into college." THAT's racism.

If they're gonna do this it should be socioeconomic. I for one think that colored people from the same circumstances as whites are just as capable as whites to do well on exams. I guess the leaders in charge of these colleges disagree.

Also, affirmative action is unfair and ultimatly leaves out poor, white male students.
