[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would the  Supreme Court’s decision impact HS class of 2024? Or would it be the following year? Can Universities change admissions drastically of decision comes as late as July 2023?[/quote]

I’d expect kids waitlisted this year at schools openly engaging in AA to sue, same with last year and the year before right up to the statute of limitations. [/quote]

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm sure you're not one either. The schools had a previous Supreme Court decision saying what they were doing was kosher. I don't see how a lawsuit could work retroactively. (Help me out, numerous biglaw partners on this board).[/quote]

Most likely (how is that for a lawyer answer) it would not at all be something you could sue on for past wrongs.  Even 2023-24 admission year probably is immune from suit.[/quote]

You could xerox the Harvard suit and file it against every university. This isn’t a new law, it’s a new interpretation of existing law and there are years worth of injured parties still inside of the statute of limitations. The only people barred will be those who have already sued and exhausted appeals [/quote]
