Supreme Court Hearing on the Harvard Racial Discrimination Case The Students for Fair Admission led by Edward Blum is suing Harvard university. The organization is accusing Harvard of its unfair admission procedures that prefer other racial minorities to Harvard students. The Asian American Coalition for Education (AACE) has taken up the case. Yukong Chang, stated that the Supreme court should issue a total ban on racial discrimination in college admissions. Blum cites that Harvard is involved in a quota system that discriminates against the Asian community. The university, as the defendant, would, however, argues that in 2018, the Asian group was 22.2% of the admitted class.

In addition to this, Harvard could also give a guideline into its holistic approach to admitting students. As a lawyer who draws upon legal realism and critical legal theory, these are the arguments I could make for the case. The primary proponent of Legal Realism had a belief that…

Discrimination in Hiring List of Possible Actions the HR Can Take One of the possible actions that the HR should take is advising the search committee on the importance of hiring Saryn. Being the best candidate with the best qualities for the job, the HR should insist on hiring her, because she will improve the performance of the hospital in service delivery. The Actions I Would Suggest As the Most Appropriate For the HR I would suggest that the HR sticks with employing the best candidate Saryn, because of the skills and knowledge she has to perform the job for the benefit of the hospital and also because it will be the right thing to do ethically to avoid discrimination in any appointments and selections in the future. Legal Issues Yes, there are legal issues of discrimination and slander.

The use of the media has helped me to address social discrimination in health care in order to create a positive impact on nursing about the patients’ outcomes.

They are not given enough care as compared to patients who are coming from wealthy backgrounds. This is an aspect that has made most of the patients end up dying, and some may take a long time to recover since they are discriminated against,…
