Supreme Court rejects affirmative action in ruling on universities using race in admissions decisions. In 6-3 affirmative action opinion, Supreme Court decides using race as factor in college admissions violates Constitution’s 14th Amendment. Folks, this is a biggie. You know why? Because for too long, universities, corporate America, and the government have based hiring and advancement on skin color, not achievement. Commonsense dictates that all these sectors should be basing placement decisions on the principles of meritocracy. Highly skilled people have lost out to less qualified candidates for far too long because of skin tone or ethnic background. I firmly believe that the practice was a knee-jerk reaction to the segregationist era, culminating with the Vietnam War’s impact on society.
