AUDIE CORNISH, HOST: Next week, the U.S. Supreme Court reconsiders affirmative action. On Wednesday, it will hear oral arguments in the case of Fisher versus University of Texas. The plaintiff, Abigail Fisher, is a white woman who says she was denied admission because of her race. Her case is the first to reach the high court since 2003, when it re-affirmed that public colleges and universities could consider race as one of many factors in admissions decisions.</s>AUDIE CORNISH, HOST: Ahead of the arguments, we want to hear your thoughts. Is there still a place for affirmative action in 2012 and why? We'd love to hear about the experiences that shape your answer. Again, the question: Is there a place for affirmative action today and why. To answer, go to NPR.org and click on Contact Us at the bottom of the page.
