There is some ambiguity in differentiating equity and efficiency since at one level, efficiency refers to the choice of an admissions policy which is optimal relative to some objective function of a policymaker; this objective function can in turn include measures of what is conventionally understood to mean equity. I believe public policy discussions tend to distinguish between policies which maximize aggregate output in some sense and those that achieve some notion of a just allocation of slots, and so will avoid this ambiguity by equating efficiency with meeting objective functions that do not incorporate such considerations

See David Miller, 'Deserving Jobs', The Philosophical Quarterly 42(167): 161-81. For Miller, these factors amount to the effect an employee has on the future profitability of a firm, subject to the constraint that this effect is itself measured with respect to legitimate behavior on the part of others. So, the fact that racial prejudice by other workers will affect firm productivity does not affect the desert of a black applicant; presumably, one would also rule out prejudice on the part of customers.

The fact that the corporation may have market power in this example is not relevant to the argument. Once one considers profit maximization by a large organization, issues of imperfect information can arise. Gerald Gaus (personal communication) has made the interesting suggestion that competition among campuses for students via meritocratic admissions rules might promote efficiency when policymakers cannot perfectly monitor resource use by the individual campuses. As far as I know, this idea has not been explored either theoretically or empirically.

Individual studies may be identified in which classroom complementarities appear to be present. See, for example, Maureen Hallinan, 'Ability Grouping and Student Learning', Brookings Papers on Education Policy (2003): 95-124. While Hallinan does not focus on complementarities, she provides evidence that they are present in English but not Mathematics. But my reading of the literature suggests that the Betts and Shkolnick summary of the state of empirical evidence is reasonable. See Betts and Shkolnick, 'The Effects of Ability Grouping on Student Achievement and Resource Allocation in Secondary Schools'.

A recent semipopular book, Scott Page, The Difference (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 2007) contains a large number of citations of studies purporting to find efficiency effects, but this compilation of evidence is unfortunately done in a polemical fashion, with no effort seriously to evaluate the studies either on their own terms or in terms of how they may be extrapolated to justify his grandiose claims about the benefits of diversity. Diversity effects are a type of social interaction and are subject to the statistical difficulties I have described.

My arguments do not depend on which way one thinks about the violations
