It is a question of monetary damages only at this point. The racist policy used by the law school are no longer in use. The plaintiffs would have had to prove that the school's actions cost the plaintiffs monetary or economic harm. If you are rejected due to a racist admissions policy, you sue to reverse that policy, but economic damages are something else. One might argue that the Plaintiffs would have made an income as lawyers upon graduation, but who says they would have graduated -- that's only a hypothetical. I don't think this was a bad day for the court.
