In conclusion the writer argues that the results of the study show that dismantling affirmative action is premature.

From the Paper:

"Affirmative action was put in place to protect the rights of minorities. For years it stood guard in the hallways of employers, universities and other organizations to remind those with decision-making authority to be fair. Affirmative action was something that was supposed to level the playing field for minorities after many years of being passed over because they are minority. In recent years many states have been dismantling their affirmative action with the belief that society has evolved to a point where it is no longer needed."
