I think it's a good thing that admission criteria based on race are dis-allowed. I'd rather support dis-advantaged people over people of a particular race. Doesn't mean you can't still support dis-advantaged people in many ways - and I strongly think they should be supported. The left doesn't have to rely on identity politics to achieve good outcomes. They would be far more effective and less divisive if they did so.
Does that supreme court ruling also rule out admissions decided on the basis of income, where a person lives, etc? I assume the answer is no? Low income scholarships are clearly a thing... why not admissions?
If I'm wrong in this regard - then boost support to pre-college students (scholarships, tutoring programs etc). Earlier the better - as I am given to understand that earlier intervention is better than later in terms of outcomes.
