Affirmative Action case before Supreme Court

The Supreme Court will consider a affirmative action case at the University of Texas. 

The Supreme Court will once again confront the issue of race in university admissions in a case brought by a white student denied a spot at the flagship campus of the University of Texas.
The court said Tuesday it will return to the issue of affirmative action in higher education for the first time since its 2003 decision endorsing the use of race as a factor in admissions. This time around, a more conservative court is being asked to jettison that ruling and outlaw affirmative action in the university setting.

This is long overdue. Higher ed is full of scandals these days, including racial inequities.
