SUMMARY:(Virtual) The Future of Affirmative Action: What’s at Stake?
DESCRIPTION:Join DAIP for a virtual conversation with legal experts ahead of the SCOTUS decisions in two cases that will determine the constitutionality of race-conscious university admissions policies\, which is often referred to as affirmative action. Since the 1960s and 70s\, affirmative action has led to increased equity in the admissions process\, more diverse student bodies\, and more enriching learning experiences for all students.

Hassel (Professor\, Roger Williams University School of Law) is a legal expert in constitutional law and civil rights litigation.\nPanelist Michael J. Yelnosky (Professor\, Roger Williams University School of Law) is a founding member of the RWU law faculty\, and a legal expert in employment and labor law\, employment discrimination law\, and judicial selection.\n\nThis program has been submitted for HRCI and SHRM CE credits.  \nREGISTER Here
