June 29th: FAIR Post-Decision Roundtable with Ilya Shapiro, Wilfred Reilly, Wai Wah Chin
Join FAIR for a conversation on Thursday 6/29 6pm ET - In the unlikely event that the court does not rule on Thursday, please be on the lookout for the new roundtable date.
The Supreme Court is poised to ruled on Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard/Students for Fair Admissions v. University of North Carolina tomorrow. In 2022, we filed an amicus brief in favor of the plaintiff in the Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard College case.
We did so out of the belief that universities should not evaluate individual applicants by assigning them to a racial group they are meant to represent; this not only tramples individual rights, it results in division, resentment, and dehumanization. Increasing and securing diversity of thought, cultural background, and socioeconomic status benefits everyone on campus and is better achieved without reliance on the crude and false metric of racial categorizations.
Join us Thursday, June 29th at 6pm ET for a roundtable discussion featuring panelists Ilya Shapiro, Wilfred Reilly, and Wai Wah Chin, moderated by our very own Maud Maron, where we will break down the ruling and discuss the important questions and changes that undoubtedly are just around the corner.
