Description: EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION | Many policy positions exist around the issue of affirmative action in education. University of Michigan professors Richard Lempert, David Chambers, and Institute for Social Research senior survey specialist Terry Adams, share the results of an empirical study that surveyed minority and white alumni who had graduated from the University of Michigan Law School over a period of 16 years. Their findings, based on a comparative analysis of academic and professional success, help the authors shed light on what they argue are myths about affirmative action.
