SCOTUS to Reconsider Race-Based Affirmative Action in College Admissions

The Supreme Court announced yesterday that it will reconsider race-based affirmative action in college admissions. The justices said they will hear challenges to policies at Harvard and the University of North Carolina that use students’ race among many other criteria to determine who gains a coveted place in an entering class. The cases would be heard in the Supreme Court session that begins in October and a decision could be likely made in June 2023.
