The University of Texas School of Law Reaction to the District Court Ruling

"We are disappointed that our requests for further proceedings in the District Court have been denied. We will continue our vigorous efforts to enroll students of all races within the limits imposed by the courts. One such example of our efforts was this month's announced partnership of our UT- San Antonio program which will encourage geographic diversity in pre-law training for the students of UTSA. Our successful, similar program with UT-El Paso produced impressive results. We look forward to pursuing similar programs with other Texas colleges."

William C. Powers
Dean of The University of Texas School of Law
