[Quote:] It is also likely that the federal Department of Education’s
Office for Civil Rights will challenge UT’s decision. President Bush personally–as governor and as
president–and the rest of his administration have strongly supported the use of race-neutral means to
achieve diversity. Indeed, they have pointed to the system UT was using–and now wants to reject–as a
model approach. [end quote from GOPUSA.Com, “University of Texas Shouldn’t Abandon Colorblind
Admissions,” Edward Blum (Center for Equal Opportunity), Jan. 29, 2004.]
