The Intersection of Affirmative Action and Summer Melt

This week, VineDown host Emily Smith chatted with a few friends close to home: CollegeVine team members Vinay Bhaskara, José  Mallabo, and Jason McNair-Faulk. 

The group spent some time discussing summer melt, especially among students of color, and how the phenomenon is interacting with recent changes to race-conscious admissions.
