Justices To Revisit Race-Based Admissions.

The article reports that the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a complaint brought against the University of Texas, Austin against the school's use of race as a factor in its admissions. The university's policy is based on a 2003 Court judgment that racial diversity was a compelling state interest in higher education. The new case is considered as one in a group of cases to be heard by the court in 2012-2013 in which previous rulings could be overturned.
