It's been a hot issue nationally and in New Hampshire, with a US Supreme court challenge and a proposal to change state regulations. We'll talk about how this issue is being debated on campus, and how students view affirmative action policies. Some say it’s aimed at promoting a diverse campus while others say it’s outdated and unfair. Laura talks with Andy Houston, a senior at UNH and member of the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs there www.unh.edu, and Robert Butts, a freshman at Dartmouth College and columnist for The Dartmouth Online www.thedartmouth.com
