Renu and Marshall cover possible race-neutral alternatives to the status quo, the balance between pure meritocracy and the advantage of a diverse (in all respects) student body, and the legal specifics of the Harvard University case driving the debate. They also explore the issues driving a possible realignment of Asian-American voters, at least at the local and city level.
