U.S. Supreme Court to hear case on affirmative action in college admissions

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case on affirmative action in college admissions, a case that could have major implications for how colleges and universities consider race in their admissions process.

The case, Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, challenges the use of race as a factor in admissions at the University of Texas at Austin. The Supreme Court has previously ruled that race can be a factor in admissions, but it is unclear how the court will rule in this case.

The case is being closely watched by colleges and universities across the country. A ruling against affirmative action could have a major impact on how colleges and universities admit students.
