A quick definition of civil-rights act:

Term: Civil-Rights Act

Definition: The Civil-Rights Act is a law created by the government to make sure that everyone is treated fairly and equally, no matter their race, gender, religion, skin color, or age. It was made to protect people from discrimination in things like jobs and education. This law was created after the Civil War and was strengthened during the civil-rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s.

A more thorough explanation:

The Civil-Rights Act is a federal law that was enacted after the Civil War and during the civil-rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. Its purpose is to implement and enforce the basic rights guaranteed by the Constitution, and to prohibit discrimination in employment and education based on race, sex, religion, color, or age.

  • A company cannot refuse to hire someone because of their race or religion.
  • A school cannot deny admission to a student because of their gender or age.
  • An employer cannot pay a woman less than a man for doing the same job.

These examples illustrate how the Civil-Rights Act protects individuals from discrimination in various aspects of their lives, such as employment and education. The law ensures that everyone has equal opportunities and is not unfairly treated based on their race, sex, religion, color, or age.

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
