[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How will this affect universities trying for gender parity? Eg 39,000 female applicants and 22,000 make applicants but they admit males at higher rate to have a near 50-50 class?[/quote]

Depends on how narrow or wide the SC rules against affirmative action. [/quote]

Forgot to add that Noah Feldman (Harvard Law) addressed this:

[quote]Universities would no longer be allowed to pursue racial diversity, gender diversity, sexual orientation diversity or religious diversity. (They would still be allowed to pursue economic diversity, class diversity, viewpoint diversity and geographic diversity, because these categories aren’t protected against discrimination by the Constitution or civil rights laws.) https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/supreme-court-will-end-the-era-of-college-diversity/2022/10/16/4716c656-4d53-11ed-ada8-04e6e6bf8b19_story.html[/quote]

Wouldn’t this make single gender colleges illegal? What about universities - like BYU - will religious affiliation requirements?[/quote]
