Detailed explanation-1: -Bakke sued the school, arguing that the clear-cut racial quota system was unconstitutional and a violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The Court held that these admission criteria violated the Equal Protection Clause and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Detailed explanation-2: -Regents of University of California v. Bakke (1978), the Supreme Court ruled that a university’s use of racial “quotas” in its admissions process was unconstitutional, but a school’s use of “affirmative action” to accept more minority applicants was constitutional in some circumstances.
Detailed explanation-3: -It upheld affirmative action, allowing race to be one of several factors in college admission policy. However, the court ruled that specific racial quotas, such as the 16 out of 100 seats set aside for minority students by the University of California, Davis School of Medicine, were impermissible.
