Earlier this year, the Supreme Court in its decision on Students for Fair Admissions Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College, struck down affirmative action policies at the University of North Carolina and Harvard University, effectively ending the consideration of race as a factor for admitting students to higher education.
