Notably, the Court may soon declare the use of race in college admissions—affirmative action—illegal, and it may also massively constrain the power of the federal government to protect the environment.

I fail to see a problem here.

I would say that if a school is a private institution they can accept or deny anybody they want for any reason they want.

That said.. Even better, solution would be to bar ALL gov educational underwritten loans to any school that has discriminatory policies

Yes, that would be terrible. Even though the Constitution openly states that everyone should enjoy “equal protection of the laws” and even though the Civil Rights Act forbids discrimination on account of race, SCOTUS should continue to allow members of some races to be discriminated against because, darn it, they’re just too successful compared to members of other races.

Remember, words do not mean what they mean, they mean what we want them to mean. Case in point ‘woman’.
