The only difference between universities and businesses is the fact that businesses can’t import semi-intelligent 3rd worlders whenever they want via scholarships.https://www.princeton.edu/~tje/files/Pub_Minding the campus combined files.pdf
You know what? You're right, the university study has a lot of truth in it. Affirmative Action at the university level is a hot mess. You win points for that one.
At the hiring level, in business, not so much. Different companies apply Affirmative Action with varying degrees of success. The industry I work in, or worked in (Film-TV production - semi-retired now) has had a lot of success.
The tech industry has done well for the most part, and healthcare is well represented.
Even the financial industry is doing better.
That doesn't mean that all businesses understand how to apply it, and it doesn't mean that civil service knows how to either, at least not at the city or county level.
I'm still going to bring the Supreme Court arguments in for New Haven but you win on the university points.
You're still wrong about Affirmative Action being reverse racism.
Failure to understand, implement and apply AA is the responsibility of those who are tasked with doing so.
The idea is to present equal opportunities that were not historically available.
Businesses also have to keep up production at a higher level than universities, so they can’t just hire anyone who fits their quota.
