Lawyers for Civil Rights Challenge Harvard’s Legacy Admissions Policy, Alleging Discrimination Against Students of Color

Lawyers for Civil Rights is challenging Harvard University's legacy admissions policy, alleging that it discriminates against students of color. The suit claims that the policy violates the Civil Rights Act and gives an unfair boost to mostly white children of alumni. The case is a response to the Supreme Court's decision to end affirmative action in college admissions, and could have a significant impact on the admissions process at Harvard and other universities.
