Corporate Quotas

It's getting worse. Recently, some companies withdrew their job offers from new grads due to recession. They withdrew only from boys. They're not even trying to hide it.

I’m actually willing to bet that this will come to an end in the near future. I would just about bet everything I have that the Supreme Court is going to kill Grutter. I don’t see how true gender quotas can survive after that. Of course, it will probably require an employment case making it’s way up to the SC though before anyone changes, unless the court offers some really strong dicta that scares people off before then.

To your question as to how it’s been legal so far, the precedence came from Grutter. Essentially, to be legal under that framework, a gender quota would need to be remedial, temporary, and not completely bar men. Someone could theoretically win a case if quota was not remedial (there have always been lots of female nurses, so no gender quota allowed there), not temporary (company has almost 50% women in a role but keeps a hiring quota), or bars men entirely.

There is one more thing though. Affirmative action law has changed with Gratz so that racial quotas aren’t allowed for university affirmative action. I don’t know whether anyone has ever tried that argument with employment.

This is real. If you have boys and they are going to college make sure they are aware of this and in many cases it would be advantageous to get a masters or phd to better compete with your female colleages with undergraduate degrees. Please note the larger the company or government tend to have more of these quotas.
