Colorado Plans to Use Scholarships to Increase Diversity

The University of Colorado at Boulder will try to increase diversity in its enrollment by offering more scholarship money to minority students, but not by lowering admissions standards for applicants from underrepresented groups, according to an article in today’s Daily Camera, a local newspaper. The plan was announced by the campus’s interim chancellor, Philip P. DiStefano, who was responding to proposals made by a diversity committee of local leaders.
