Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Supreme Court in the University of California Regents v. Bakke case upheld the principle of affirmative action while invalidating a particular means of achieving it, specifically the use of a strict quota system in admissions. The Court's ruling allowed for the consideration of race as one factor among many in admissions decisions to achieve a diverse student body. The decision did not invalidate the principle of affirmative action altogether.
