Are you saying private institutions can racially discriminate against any race they like?
Would you be saying the same thing if Harvard were consistently discriminating against blacks?

Yes & yes. And, when the public consumer base either bolsters their position, or causes them to fold, the Free Market will have done its job.

Course, not even many “(C)” these days would think the Fed. intrusion & trampling of Rights via ‘Civil Rights Act’ are a *bad* thing...When even the old (& correct) signage: “We have the Right to deny service for any reason” is poo-poo’d.

Should be able to, yes. If I want to open a private men's club that is only open to white men, or Christian men, that's my perogative. If I want to not hire gays to work in my church, that's my perogative.

The Civil Rights act of 1964 only applied to "public accommodations".

Would you be saying the same thing if Harvard were consistently discriminating against blacks?

Yes, I would because it's the principle that matters.

I am arguing that "historically black colleges" like Howard University have a right to prefer blacks over non-blacks, yes. Do you disagree? Should Howard university be sued? They clearly have a student body that looks nothing like the population of the nation, state or city they are located in.

Should the government for all-male golf clubs to accept women? Do we have the right of free association, even in private affairs, or does Fed Gov get to intrude into yet another aspect of our lives, cheered on by cuckservatives?
