Description:

The decision documents from the Supreme Court run for 237 pages. But the effect can be stated briefly: affirmative action as we have known it in our universities is dead. SCOTUS said race and ethnicity cannot be used as part of the process of choosing students to enter an institution of higher learning.

Universities have been responding with dismay to the ruling, including Oregon State University. OSU's president, like many others, restated a commitment to diversity on campus. We explore the commitment and the more limited options for realizing it, in a chat with Scott Vignos, Vice President of OSU and Chief Diversity Officer there.
