特朗普政府取消招生种族配额制

17

The Trump administration rescinded Obama-era guidelines encouraging the use of race to determine admission to educational institutions, instead favoring a race-neutral policy that critics see as a move against affirmative action.
特朗普政府近日撤销了奥巴马时期通过的鼓励将种族作为高校录取考量因素的指导方针,转而支持“种族中立”政策,批评人士认为此举是在反对平权法案。

The shift gives colleges the federal government's blessing to leave race out of admissions and enrollment decisions, and underscores the contentious politics that for decades have surrounded affirmation action policies, which have repeatedly been challenged before the US Supreme Court.
这一政策不但使各大高校获得了联邦政府的庇佑,即招生录取时可以不考虑种族因素,也凸显了围绕平权法案相关政策持续数十年的斗争政治。平权法案已多次遭遇美国最高法院的质疑。

The action comes amid a high-profile court fight over Harvard University admissions that has attracted the government's attention.
这一行动是在一场备受瞩目的哈佛大学录取案件之后做出的,该案件已经引起了政府的注意。

The new policy dramatically departs from the stance of the Obama administration, which on multiple occasions said schools could consider race in admissions decisions and should do so to foster diversity.
这项新政策明显偏离了奥巴马政府的立场,在很多情况下,学校都可以考虑招生竞赛,并且应该这样做以培养多样性。

The Trump administration's decisions brought government policy back to the George W. Bush administration guidances.
