Affirmative Action
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. When affirmative action was first introduced, its primary purpose was to give minority groups the same -- or better -- chance as their white counterparts. What that meant for the academic world was if two entrance candidates were equally qualified on all levels, yet one was a minority and the other was white, the minority would automatically be accepted. There are times, however, when an underqualified minority wins out over a qualified white male just to meet the necessary quota. The writer discusses the background and ideology of affirmative action. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Affirmative Action's Decreased Relevance
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing whether there is any reason to continue affirmative action policies now. In attempting to assess the true impact of affirmative action policies over the years, there is disagreement regarding degrees of wage gains, but there is little disparity of opinion in the fact that gains have been made. Whatever positive effects affirmative action policies have had over the years, those policies' usefulness now appears to be dated and irrelevant themselves. There seems to be little if any legitimate reason to continue them. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Affirmative Action: Argument For Its Rejection As A Policy Of Federal And State Government
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The original concept of affirmative action had everyone confident that an equitable approach to ethnic discrimination may truly have been found; not only were minorities given a better opportunity to secure a good education and better jobs, but they were taking part in an unprecedented social project to infuse greater diversity in an otherwise imbalanced society. However, the program never quite achieved its objectives in the manner intended, instead creating a backlash of reverse discrimination against white students and job applicants who – by the very nature of their academic achievement and occupational performance – were overlooked for university acceptance and employment.

Affirmative Action: General Identification
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Viable solutions to deep-rooted social problems often come with a pretty high price tag where compromise is concerned; where two or more sides of a given issue are incapable of working out the situation for everyone's benefit, social policy will step in and institute a solution where one party greatly benefits over the others. The extent to which affirmative action began as a principled approach to bringing minorities greater social, academic and economic equity is both grand and far-reaching; that this very same program has only served to dumb down the minority population while at the same time create a situation of reverse discrimination against whites speaks to a once-viable solution that has long overstayed its welcome.
