U. Louisville will still use race in admissions, president says

University of Louisville’s President Kim Schatzel recently told faculty “we’re going to drive a truck through experience with race in terms of our admissions.”

The comments referred to campus leaders’ apparent plans to use what some consider a loophole in the Supreme Court’s recent decision to outlaw affirmative action in college admissions.

Speaking to the Faculty Senate on Oct. 4, Schatzel said campus leaders will use a caveat that was carved out in part by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson during the court hearing on Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard College, according to a recording of the meeting obtained by The College Fix.
