Alumni Interviews

This is the time of year that many alumni are asked to help interview prospective candidates for admission to their alma mater. And, college admission offices these days being what they are, no doubt alumni will get hints—if not instructions—to look with special favor on applicants with the right ethnic stuff. If any NRO readers are among these alumni, our first choice would be for them to resist such pressure. For those who cannot and who then wish to assuage their consciences, our second choice is that they make generous—and tax-deductible—contributions to organizations that are fighting this kind of discrimination. Organizations like, oh, say, the Center for Equal Opportunity [link: www.ceousa.org], where I work.
