What's Going On With Affirmative Action? (Ft. Dr. Angelica Cortez)
Manage episode 367739775 series 3263378
In this episode of MeSearch, we discuss college admissions and affirmative action in the United States. On Thursday June 28, 2023, the US Supreme Court ended race conscious admission programs at colleges and universities across the country. So what does this all mean and why do we as Filipino Americans need to know about this? In this episode, we are joined by the founder and Executive Director of LEAD Filipino, Dr. Angelica Cortez; also known as “Gel.” You might remember her from former MeSearch episode, "What is LEAD Filipino?"
