The Legality of Race-Based University Admissions

Please Register Here

The United States Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments on whether it is legal for universities to consider race as a factor in university admissions. What is the case about? What do the data show about admissions practices? What would a ruling striking down race-based policies mean for universities? The Center will examine these questions with three experts. Peter S. Arcidiacono is the William Henry Glasson Distinguished Professor of Economics at Duke University and was the expert witness in the case against Harvard University. David Bernstein is a University Professor and the Executive Director of the Liberty & Law Center at the Antonin Scalia Law School in Arlington, Virginia. Professor Bernstein is the author of Classified: The Untold Story of Racial Classification in America (Bombardier Press 2022). Adam White is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. He focuses on American constitutionalism, the Supreme Court, and the administrative state.
