Race, Is it Important or Essential?

In this article, we can see deeply what matters and what doesn't in school admissions. This article also made mi think a lot. Is this happening only with law schools? What do deans see in students? What is it that really matters when you come to applying to college or universities? Race is a pretty small word, but with a lot of meaning. The real question having to do with this article is, if it's really something important or essential?

What their looking for, is the best possible students, and this can only happen by looking at their background information. I do think that what they do is really smart, they are looking for the best class possible and this can only happen by looking at all of the variables and options there is. I bet these dimensions they talk about are pretty complex, but from what I understood; they also look for something or various very specific things. Why race? Why should race matter? These "race dimension qualities" they talk about do make a lot of sense to me. Race plays a huge role in someones life, and I love how the author makes this something very important and something we should all think about. You obviously have to see the entire application to evaluate a person, but if race make your class a better one, why not encourage it?
