Not ditching diversity: Colleges adapt to end of race-based admissions
College administrations are changing their admissions processes to be in line with the Supreme Court’s ruling while aiming to ensure that they can attract students from diverse backgrounds to campus.
At Smith, part of the changes includes adding a short-answer question to its applications. It asks prospective students what “personal experiences, background or abilities would you bring to this residential environment to share with your neighbors and what would you hope your neighbors would share with you?”
“Access to education is a fundamental core value to Smith and we firmly believe that our community is stronger when it includes people with a variety of backgrounds and experiences,” said Carolyn McDaniel, a spokesperson for Smith. “This new question offers each applicant an opportunity to share with us their unique voice and perspective, so we can understand how they will contribute to the Smith community.”
