The current state of affairs in the U.S., where failing to discriminate by race makes you a racist.

It should be illegal for any state funded college/university to ever ask what race an applicant is.

Any and all government forms should remove all questions pertaining to race.

Citizens stop answering the question of “Race” on your census forms.

I’m not sure of the series of events concerning this case, but please consider the following points which question Supreme Court involvement in this case.

To begin with, the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate or decide policy for any aspect of intrastate schools.

Also, the only race-based issue that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect is voting rights as evidenced by the 15th Amendment. So intrastate schools are free to discriminate on the basis of race imo, a state’s voters ultimately deciding the limits of racial policy.

Finally, if the feds are using the issue of the school (or students) possible receiving of federal funding to justify sticking their big noses into the school’s affairs, consider that the states have never constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to tax and spend for intrastate schooling purposes. And if such is the case, then vote-winning federal funding for the school was arguably stolen from the state in the first place by means of unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes which Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.

Insights welcome.
