Description: First it was Princeton University, then Harvard University, and now Yale. Three of the top ranked universities in the country are (or were) all the subject of investigation by the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights. The complaints allege that the schools' attempts to ensure racial and ethnic diversity among admitted students unfairly discriminate against White and Asian students. Are these schools' diversity efforts violating the Office of Civil Rights' mandate to ensure equal access to educational opportunities for all? It is an important question, with far-reaching consequences.
