History Continued
On March 24, 1965 a group of faculty members and students held the nation's first ever faculty-led "teach-in“ In 2003, two lawsuits involving U-M's affirmative
action admissions policy reached the U.S. Supreme Court. President George W. Bush took the unusual step of publicly opposing the policy before the court issued a ruling
The debate continues because in November 2006, Michigan voters passed Proposal 2, banning most affirmative action in university admissions
