Trying to summarize: Maximize diversity subject to academic excellence is the problem the dean would like to solve, but no longer can due to the supreme court ruling. The dual problem is Maximize academic excellence subject to diversity, which is what the opponents of the original legislation proposed was happening. And (being sympathetic here - this is not necessarily my belief) could be interpreted as achieving lower excellence just mathematically speaking. Maybe it's not actually clear anyone was doing that, maybe it is clear everyone was doing that. I'm not sure. The difference is easy to say, but probably harder to grok.
