In 2013, the Supreme Court made a ruling in the Davis v. the University of Texas at Austin case that the college must show compelling evidence that racial preferences are justified as one of the admissions criteria.
<h3>In Davis v. UT Austin, what decision did the Supreme Court make?</h3>
In Davis v. the University of Texas at Austin (Fisher), the U.S. Supreme Court (the "Court") decided on June 23, 2016, by a vote of 4-3 that the university's race-conscious admissions policy complied with the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
In its 2013 decision in Davis v. Texas, which remanded the case to the Fifth Circuit, the Supreme Court set high requirements for affirmative action policies, saying that colleges could only take race into account when making admissions decisions if they could provide a "reasoned, principled explanation" for wanting a diverse student body.

Marks explains that we have been made to believe that conflict is bad and compromise is good. He describes this as a vision that is too simplistic to be upheld by the nations of the world. Marks says it will be difficult to determine whether conflict is good or bad if we do not understand the people involved in the conflict, the cause and the strategy involved in the conflict.
He said compromise, contrary to general belief, can be harmful if it does not protect the vulnerable and the dis-empowered.
Marks gave an example of a United Nations agency that collaborated with the federal and local governments, television company, and even a multinational soda company in order to address the problem of poor sanitation in schools in India. This arrangement helped the corporation to promote their brands and products. Marks argued that, the United Nations were creating another problem while trying to solve one by promoting a soda company, knowing fully well that a large consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages increases the risk of obesity.
The mistake governments make, according to Marks, when they collaborate with industries is that they conflate the common good with common ground. They sacrifice the interest of the people on the alter of industrial collaboration.
By saying that governments should struggle or engage in conflicts with corporations, Marks means that the corporations always act to promote their commercial interests while government is saddled with the responsibility of promoting the common good, they should not leave this responsibility while trying to go into relationship with the corporations.

Answer: a. When prices in the stock market are up nothing happens. If they are down, the economy is in trouble.
