Sure it did.

but if colleges and high schools get to choose by race then it becomes a regional thing with all the kids in say white suburbia most likely ending up with better teachers who get paid more. while kids in say densely populated minority sections of a city get stuck with crap teachers.
Or th eother downer is schools can choose a student regardless of their cpabailities and because of their race they get stuck at a rather bad school not known for it's academics because of the members of the student body.
