From The Hill: “An analysis by The Associated Press of 20 elite schools shows the drastic effect the 2023 high court decision had on enrollment, with some institutions seeing their Black student population drop to as low as 2 percent. While everyone agrees the 6-3 Supreme Court decision is the cause, debate swirls around how schools can get the numbers back up and how the Trump administration would respond to a concerted effort to do so … The biggest decrease the AP found was at Columbia University, which went from 20 percent Black student population before the ruling to 13 percent in 2025. Harvard went from 18 percent to 11.5 percent.”
