During this luncheon, cosponsored with the Center for Equal Opportunity (CEO), CEO will release and present a new study and report entitled “Race and Ethnicity in Undergraduate Admissions at Five Virginia Universities.” The study examines how admissions programs at five Virginia public universities (University of Virginia, College of William & Mary, Virginia Tech, James Madison University, and George Mason University) preference certain applicants based on race. The results of the study and its implications for the broader academic discussion of racial preferences in college admissions will be discussed by the panelists.
