Texas Medical School Will No Longer Consider Race In Admissions Decisions As Part Of Deal With Education Department

The pressure from the Education Department on the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center in Lubbock is part of a broader push to roll back affirmative action policies. The school said in a letter to the department in February that it "is committed to exploring race-neutral alternatives to enhancing diversity and fully and completely evaluating its current admissions policies and practices."
