The Facts of Grutter v. Bollinger:
In 1996 Barbara Grutter, a white Michigan resident, applied to the University of Michigan Law School with a 3.8 grade point average and 161 LSAT score. The Law School rejected her application. In December 1997, Grutter filed suit against the Law School and its Dean Lee Bollinger alleging that they discriminated against her on the basis of race in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Grutter contended that she was rejected because the Law School uses race as a predominant factor, giving applicants who belong to certain minority groups a significantly greater chance of admission than students with similar credentials from disfavored racial groups. The Law School admissions process did not have a set minimum number of underprivileged minority students it accepted. Rather they set a goal which would admit a critical mass of minority students to help the Law School achieve its goal of diversity.
