For over a thousand years, universities as an institution have existed to provide holistic education in a broad range of subject areas (regardless of one's major), not job-specific training.
Just to be clear (because maybe you aren't and I misunderstand) but are you for AA in the hope of providing a holistic education by the means of capping enrollment on race?
