Despite legal challenges, universities are increasingly using holistic admissions practices to accomplish affirmative action and increased student diversity. The admissions committee of the college of nursing at an elite university grapples with the potential outcomes of adopting a holistic admissions process. The case offers the legal and theoretical contexts surrounding affirmative action in higher education. The reader is prompted to consider the value of diversity in the university setting, and the legal and ethical perspectives surrounding admissions practices.
