105. You're kidding, right?
You don't think AA has anything to with college applications? And you base your opinion on the fact that AA pgms differ from institution to institution?

How does the fact that they differ lead you to the conclusion that income isn't used by universities?

colledge addmission policies are not AA, they are required to conform to AA I believbe but they are not soley controled by AA and again varry widely from college to college

College admissions plans are often guided by AA, which is a volutary pgm, so your claim that they are "required to conform to AA" is incorrect. AA does not REQUIRE anyone to do anything. AA only ALLOWS institutions to consider certain factors, such as income. Michigan was singled out in order to prevent ANY college from using race as a factor. Court decisions are binding on any institution within the courts jurisdiction.
