As the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled against affirmative action, the Biden administration is calling on colleges to consider factors when they admit students, including a student’s financial means and hometown.
The Biden administration said it will provide guidance to colleges and universities as to how they can legally maintain diverse student bodies in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision knocking down affirmative action.
One challenge schools will likely face operationalizing the court’s decision is figuring out in which situations the court left room for considering race, said Dominique Baker, an associate professor of education policy at Southern Methodist University. In addition to guidance, the White House said the Department of Education’s National Center for Education statistics will look at ways to collect and publish more information about higher-education admissions and enrollment practices. That data could include information on applicants’ and enrollees’ race, legacy status and other factors.
