D. Proposition 209

Since the passing of Proposition 209 - a ballot initiative that amended the California Constitution to prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, sex or ethnicity - the number of Black students admitted and enrolled to UC Berkeley has dropped despite an increase in applications , according to a UC Office of the President fact sheet.

According to the fact sheet, Black students made up 6.7% percent of all enrolled California resident freshmen in 1995 , but this figure dropped to 3.7% in 1998, just two years after Prop 209 had taken effect. In contrast, 29.5 % of California resident freshmen consisted of white students in 1995, and this figure dropped to 28.2% percent in 1998.
