Summarize Michigan's current view of affirmative action as it relates to university student admissions. Compare it to other states.
Regardless of whether you agree with the correct view on admissions, do you think universities should be allowed to take race and gender into consideration when hiring faculty in order to foster diversity? Do you think they should be required to? What are the benefits? What are the disadvantages? Do you feel different depending on which university it is? Does that matter. Describe If the law allowed it, and a university wanted to consider race and gender when choosing its faculty, what guidelines would you develop for the human resources department to ensure the program worked? Think about what you discussed related to FMLA. Consider how you protect from misuse and how you still ensure "equal opportunity?" The goal, here, is to create guidelines that other universities would want to replicate.
