During an online chat session with an MBA admissions team today, I posed the question, "The Supreme Court will be revisiting the constitutionality of Affirmative Action later this year. To what degree does the School consider race in the admissions process? If affirmative action is overturned, how will it impact the School?"
At first I thought they were going to ignore my question, but finally responded by side-stepping and giving a b.s. response that didn't answer my question at all.
So I was curious what you all thought about the matter. How will it impact MBA programs and rankings?
ill gladly be the first to step into this bullet
which im sure no one else will respond to because theyre worried about certain political correctness lol
in a nutshell i doubt anything will change -- i think this happened in a way with the UC school system and the asians who were quota'd due to them getting into UCLA berkeley etc... and i think univ of michigan had a similar case but all they will do is go ahead and change the 'structure' from affirmative action to diversity inclusion or something and everything will be okay with the new laws they conjure up
im sure the adcom didnt want to answer since its obviously a very political subject. i cant see it changing the rankings at all... and programs such as consortium toigo forte etc will still exist even if the schools themselves got rid of any diversity initiatives they had prior.
