Princeton University has announced plans to enhance diversity in admissions following the US Supreme Court's decision to ban affirmative action. The move comes as students applying to colleges face challenges in navigating the impact of the court's ruling. The decision has drawn attention to the issue of racial preferences in elite higher education, which some argue patronizes black students. The aim of Princeton's new measures is to boost diversity and address the effects of race-based affirmative action policies that have led students away from historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs).
Students applying to colleges now are the first class to deal with the impact of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn affirmative action in admissions. For many high school students, this annual rite of passage is now trickier to navigate. @hari reports. https://t.co/ANtalSlnRm

This week at TGS I debate Randy Kennedy of Harvard Law on the Sup.Ct.'s recent affirmative action decision. Here I argue that racial preferences in elite higher education justified by "diversity" is a distraction that inherently patronizes blacks. https://t.co/KJUfwtX3iU
