== Affirmative action struck down again ==

In Students for Fair Admissions, Inc, [https://edition.cnn.com/2023/06/29/politics/read-affirmative-action-supreme-court/index.html the U.S. Supreme Court struck down affirmation action as a violation of the 14th Amendment by a vote 6-3]. They did this before in the ''Bakke'' case in 1978, so legally the issue is pretty straightforward. Biden says the Supreme Court is "out of sorts with the basic value system of the American people." But polls say otherwise. [https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/sotomayors-fake-america/ Seventy-four percent of Americans say that "public colleges should not be able to use race a factor in admissions"]. IMO, admissions should be about test results.
