Correct answer:

<h2>C. It determined that race may be a factor when admitting students, but not the only factor.</h2>

Details:

The Supreme Court's decision gave some credence to Allan Bakke's claim that the University of California at Davis had practiced some amount of reverse discrimination in denying him admittance to the medical school because he was not an economically or educationally disadvantaged member of one of four racial/ethnic groups eligible for their special admission program.  But the Court was careful to note that race could be considered as a factor (among many factors) in college admissions, if  schools practiced great care in doing so.  Having a basic quota system, such as UC Davis reserving 16 spots out of 100 each year, was considered discriminatory.

The essence of the decision in<em> Regents of the University of California v. Bakke </em>(1978) was that the Court upheld affirmative action.  It allowed race to be considered as one of several factors in college admission policy.  But establishing specific racial quotas was an approach that the Court said was not allowable.

The Supreme Court (c) determined race may be a factor when admitting students, but not the only factor. It upheld affirmative action, allowing race to be one of several factors in college admission policy, not just to fulfill a quota.

Ludmilka [50]

The principle in Brown vs Board of Education was that "separate but equal" facilities violated the 14th Amendment. The "separate but equal" facilities that African Americans were put into was not really equal and therefore broke the 14th amendment.
