An Investigation of Computational Holistic Evaluation of Admissions Applications for a Minority Focused STEM Research Program
نویسندگان
چکیده
hear a new example of how universities “have voluntarily abandoned race restrictions” [as a criterion] (Schmidt, 2006) in undergraduate programs. Currently, race-conscious policies have spiraled into the graduate and professional school admissions processes as well. Also, funds that were once earmarked for minority programs are now the subject of legal challenge as well. As a result, we provide a few examples of why the higher education community needs direction on this topic.
