Seven (7) important US Supreme Court decisions related to the subject of affirmative action. We have consolidated into one eBook volume 7 United States Supreme Court cases which have greatly influenced the lives of all Americans. In one place, you have access to all of the most famous of these cases, listed here:

1978 - Regents of the University of California v. Bakke 438 U.S. 265 (1978)
The Supreme Court held that the UC Davis medical school admissions program violated the equal protection clause with the institution of quotas for underrepresented minorities. However, Justice Lewis Powell's decision in the majority upheld diversity in higher education as a "compelling interest" and held that race could be one of the factors in university admissions.

1979 - STEELWORKERS v. WEBER, 443 U.S. 193
