University Web Pages with Information on Affirmative Action
 
 
The Affirmative Action and Diversity Project: A Web Page for Research

This site from the University of California at Santa Barbara "presents diverse opinions regarding Affirmative Action topics; rather than taking a singular pro or con position, it is designed to help lend many different voices to the debates surrounding the issues of affirmative action. This site is an academic resource and it provides scholars, students, and the interested public with on-site articles and theoretical analyses, policy documents, current legislative updates, and an annotated bibliography of research and teaching materials. Because of the physical location of this resource, it contains a substantial amount of information on California politics and the recent Proposition 209. Each sub-page is divided up by categories, which may be viewed at a glance from the map. New links and documents are being added continually."

"Currently, there is a major conflict taking place over the need for affirmative action policies at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

ALANA (minority) students at UMass are outraged and are working to convince the administration to reconsider their position."
