Center for Equal Opportunity
- Center for Equal Opportunity
The Center For Equal Opportunity is a conservative think tank, which focuses on three specific areas of concern. Namely, affirmative action, immigration and bilingual education. The Center is the leading conservative organization fighting against race-based public policies, known as "affirmative action" in contracting, employment, higher education, and K-12.
The Chairman of the Center For Equal Opportunity is Linda Chavez, the President and General Counsel is Roger Clegg, and the Executive Director is Rudy Gersten.
Under Linda Chavez's leadership, the Center for Equal Opportunity has released dozens of studies documenting the extent to which race is a factor in college admissions, at over 60 colleges and universities
The CEO supports what it describes as "colorblind public policies," including the elimination or curtailment of existing racial preference and affirmative action programs, the replacement of bilingual and ESL programs with English immersion, and the adoption of policies that both welcome increased immigration while calling for the assimilation of new immigrants to the United States.
