SCOTUS: Narrow ruling in Michigan affirmative action case expected
Source: Christian Science Monitor "The US Supreme Court took up an unusual -- but important -- civil rights case on Tuesday testing whether a ban on using race-based affirmative action in college admissions in Michigan violates the equal protection rights of minorities. The case arrives at the high court four months after the justices declined to issue a sweeping decision in a case testing the constitutionality of an affirmative action program at the University of Texas. Based on questions asked during the hour-long argument session on Tuesday, it appears that the justices are disinclined to issue a broad ruling in the Michigan case, as well." (10/15/13)
