Supreme Court Further Restricts the Use of Race in College Admissions—The Impact on Higher Education and Beyond
On June 29, the United States Supreme Court issued its decision in Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. Harvard College. The majority held that the use of race as a criterion in the admission processes at Harvard College and the University of North Carolina violated, respectively, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
