Summary:Roadmap to Diversity and Educational Excellence provides guidance on legal and policy underpinnings for developing and evaluating sustainable, mission-driven, diversity-related policies and practices. This second edition includes new guidance based on the U.S. Supreme Court's 2013 decision in Fisher v. University of Texas. More than just a legal update, this publication provides additional insights into relevant facets of law, policy, and research, to reflect the current challenges that medical schools face. A new chapter helps schools explore the necessity of their race-conscious policies and practices, and a new appendix focuses on operational questions to consider when pursuing race-neutral strategies.
