President Bush’s statement on the Supreme Court’s Michigan rulings is a major letdown: “I applaud the Supreme Court for recognizing the value of diversity on our Nation’s campuses.” Oh, please. There is precious little to “applaud” here. More Bush: “Today’s decisions seek a careful balance between the goal of campus diversity and the fundamental principle of equal treatment under the law.” Perhaps the rulings do “seek” such a thing, but they do not in fact achieve it. Not even close. Color-coded admissions will be in our future for a long time.
