Right - the Supreme Court do not need Robert's vote to end AA with Harvard case. [/quote]

You got that right.[/quote]

Don't think they will try to tell a private University who they should admit. It's perfectly reasonable that they value diversity. I know I do. [/quote]

You are misinformed and should brush up on Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which conditions federal assistance to private universities on their non-discrimination.   Harvard gets lots of federal research grants.

There's really no doubt on that point; the issue is what constitutes discrimination on the basis of "race, color, or national origin."

The current Supreme Court isn't going to put up with Ibram Kendi-style "the only remedy to past discrimination is future discrimination" justifications for discrimination against Asian and White students. [/quote]
Trying to label diversity as discrimination is like calling up down or left right . Your purposefully misleading people with this juvenile sophistry.[/quote]

Asians are discriminated in the college admissions process.[/quote]

I don't know about that but since we do know that the county is roughly 15% Asian and that Asians make up over 50% of TJ there is no discrimination going on there.[/quote]

US District Court Judge ruled otherwise. [/quote]

And the SCOTUS will affirm district court ruling and reverse 4th Circuit ruling next term! Roberts will be a non-factor again![/quote]

If they were going to do this, then why didn't they stop the Class of 2026 process from going forward when they had the chance to?

4th Circuit has not weighed in on this and will not until at least September. The Class of 2027 process will look the same as the 2025 and 2026.[/quote]

If they were going to do this, then why didn't they stop the Class of 2026 process from going forward when they had the chance to?  Read the post again. It says Roberts will be a non-factor as in Roberts who decided to let the injunctive relief stand for now will be of no consequence even if he votes in favor of Harvard.

4th Circuit has not weighed in on this and will not until at least September.  Read the post again. It says "reverse 4th circuit ruling NEXT TERM meaning of course 4th circuit will reverse the District Court's ruling and SCOTUS will reverse 4th circuit next term once they grant cert.[/quote]

So they are going to dictate admission criteria to a private college? Why stop there? Why not tell business how they should hire too! As much as I have little faith in this court, even they are unlikely to go there.[/quote]
