You could be in favor of more extra-curriculars, or more 'holistic' criteria. But why affirmative action? That is an orthogonal issue.

- cncrnd 8y agoThe main change I would make to affirmative action would be considering factors like location, family income, etc that better represent a person's situation. But race, while not perfect, often captures these factors. They already consider extra curriculars, and those are easily gamed since everyone knows they're important.
- noobhacker 8y agoSince location and family income are perfectly observable variables, shouldn't we use them directly instead of race?
