  • Affirmative Action: Hurt or Help?

    Affirmative Action: Hurt or Help?

    Affirmative action is designed to end discrimination and unfair treatment of employees/students based on color (Messerli).

Affirmative action generally means giving preferential treatment to minorities in admission to universities or employment in government & businesses (Messerli). In my opinion, those that feel this way do so because of situations in their lifetimes that they have encountered.
