Are colleges violating a student's equal opportunity rights when they allow some students to enroll in classes earlier than others? Students who are not allowed to enroll in classes until a month later are often left with few classes to choose from which may cause them to graduate later due to lack of classes.

Some freshman students who are not disabled or part of sports team and do not qualify to be in priority registration get to enroll with seniors while other freshman are left to enroll weeks later.

I think you need to realize that it is a privilege, not a "right". often times upper classmen are given priority so that they CAN graduate on time. the only way it would violate "rights" is if they give preference because of race, gender, ethnicity, religion, or sexual preference.

The simple answer is NO. There are no rights being violated. The system helps to ensure that upperclassmen (seniors and juniors) can get the required courses they need in order to graduate on time.

It sounds like it. That is not fair it should be first come first serve. But they do things that are not fair all the time i saw a show on 20-20 about how colleges are very unfair.
