I guess that the clear mandate of the voters to stop granting benefits and imposing burdens upon people based upon race and sex is just to onerous for some educators to apply.

Three universities asked a federal court in Detroit to delay a state ban on affirmative action programs until after this yearÂ’s admissions and financial aid cycles. The colleges, the University of Michigan, Michigan State University and Wayne State University, want to complete their annual admissions and financial aid cycles using the standards that were in effect when the process began earlier this year. The voter-approved initiative to ban the use of race and sex preferences in university admissions and government hiring is to take effect Dec. 23.

And thus these university officials stand in a long line of dishonor with Orval Faubus and George Wallace in seeking to illegally engage in racial discrimination in education. Fire them all, and replace them with true believers in civil rights and a color-blind society.
