Supreme Court upholds affirmative actionThe Supreme Court today voted to uphold a component of the University of Texas’ admissions policy that takes race into account.

In a 5-3 vote, the justices upheld the judgment of the court of appeals, which had ruled in favor of the state’s using race in admissions.

This case is the second trip to the Supreme Court for Abigail Fisher, a white woman who was denied admission to the University of Texas and then filed a lawsuit challenging the university’s use of race in admissions.
