A U.S. federal judge ruled Tuesday that Harvard University’s admission policy does not discriminate against Asian-American students. Judge Allison Burroughs said that although Harvard’s admission program is not perfect, it passes constitutional muster. The judge wrote in her decision that creating diversity at Harvard relies, in part, on race conscious admissions. She added there is no evidence that any admission decision was negatively affected by Asian-American identity. The group Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) brought legal action against the Ivy League school in 2014. SFFA says it will appeal the decision to a higher court.
