ICYMI | It’s been 14 months since the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in the Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill cases, and until now college leaders and observers have only been able to guess at the ruling’s impact on their campuses’ racial diversity. That impact is finally becoming clearer. Over the past few weeks, a trickle of highly selective colleges have begun releasing demographic data for the Class of 2028, starting with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Aug. 21. Some colleges experienced much steeper drops in underrepresented minorities than others. At MIT, the proportion of Black and Hispanic students fell by 15 percentage points from last year, according to institutional data. The STEM-focused school also saw a one-percentage-point decrease in white student enrollment, but a seven-percentage-point increase for Asian Americans, who now make up nearly half of the incoming class—which opponents of affirmative action say validates their theory that highly qualified Asian applicants were being denied spots at top schools in favor of less qualified Black and Hispanic students.
