University of Texas Amicus Brief

November 4th, 2012

The University of Texas promotes racial diversity along with sexual diversity and different economic backgrounds. The University admits all students who are within the top 10 percent of their class and consider applications from all, even those who are below the 10 percent. All factors are taken into place including race and the University tries to keep their campus diversified. Now the campus doesn’t just keep it racially diversified but we try to factor in sexual diversity and economic backgrounds because we know that every person is not equal and we aim to treat every applicant and student as an equal person. Allowing every white applicant who is at the top of their class and very smart would allow some diversity, sexual diversity and economic background, but not of some racial diversity. Keeping diversity keeps the peace on campuses nationwide and allows those who may not be as fortunate to be equal and feel accepted.
