SPECIAL REPORT: The End of Affirmative Action in College Admissions
Update: 2023-07-01
Description
The Supreme Court has effectively ended the use of race as a factor in college admissions.
In a 6-3 ruling, along ideological lines, the divided Supreme Court struck down the admissions programs of Harvard and the University of North Carolina, which both used race as a factor in their admissions process.
Today, on this special edition of UnCommon Law, we’ll learn how the court came to its decision. And: Did the majority leave the door open for colleges to still consider race in some circumstances? We’ll learn why some supporters of affirmative action still have a glimmer of hope.
Featuring:
- Ted Shaw — Professor at the University of North Carolina, and past president of the NAACP’s Legal Defense Fund
- Michelle Adams — Professor at the University of Michigan Law School
- Lee Bollinger — Outgoing president of Columbia University, and former president of the University of Michigan
- Edward Blum, president of Students for Fair Admissions
