Less than one year ago, the U.S. Supreme Court ended race-conscious affirmative action, drawing heightened attention to long-standing inequities in the higher education system.
A new report from the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce demonstrates that even with race-conscious affirmative action, diversity gains made at the nation’s most selective colleges and universities were marginal. As a result, selective institutions need to overhaul their admission policies to achieve equitable enrollment in a post-affirmative action society, the report states.
