Story
Naval Academy's Race-Conscious Admissions Upheld by Maryland Judge
Dec 6, 2024, 04:00 PM
A federal judge in Maryland has ruled that the U.S. Naval Academy can continue to employ race-conscious admissions policies, despite the Supreme Court's decision last year to strike down affirmative action in civilian higher education. The decision was made in response to a challenge by the conservative legal group Students for Fair Admissions, which had previously succeeded in getting the Supreme Court to outlaw affirmative action in college admissions. The judge's ruling allows the Naval Academy to consider race as a factor in its admissions process, marking a significant legal distinction between military and civilian educational institutions.
