At the University of California, Santa Barbara, the demographics of students of color has remained pretty consistent with the numbers before affirmative action was eliminated. But what has happened system wide at the University of California is that the students of color are being segregated out of flagship schools like UC Berkeley, like UCLA, and into some of the other schools, less popular schools in the University of California system. So what you have is a new form of segregation within higher education implemented by the elimination of affirmative action in California.

My name is Nicholas Centino. I am a Chicano and Asian student at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
