The 2023 Supreme Court decision in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard significantly altered the college admissions landscape by effectively banning race as a factor in admissions. The landmark ruling triggered a slew of changes in admissions policies nationwide.
Edward J. Blum, president of Students for Fair Admissions, has been the driving force behind many successful lawsuits alleging race-based discrimination in higher education and other fields. In this event, Mr. Blum will sit down with AEI’s director of education policy studies, Frederick M. Hess, for a robust conversation on how Mr. Blum worked to topple race-based admissions, how universities’ admissions policies have changed since the decision, and what broader implications the decision could hold for universities moving forward.
