Episode 75: Packed SCOTUS Takes Aim at Race-Conscious Laws, Again

This week, we are going to break down the epic 5+ hour long oral arguments that the Supreme Court heard in two related cases about affirmative action in higher education. It seems, yet again, even well-established precedent is open for re-examination by this packed Court. Lindsay Langholz is joined by Professor Vinay Harpalani to break down the oral arguments and discuss what we should expect when the Court issues its decisions next year.
