"Supreme Court Allows West Point to Consider Race in Admissions Process"

The Supreme Court declined to immediately block West Point from considering race in its admissions process, rejecting a request from Students for Fair Admissions. The court's order emphasized that the record is underdeveloped and does not express a view on the merits of the constitutional question. The decision allows West Point to continue its admissions process, which includes considering race as a factor. The conservative group criticized the ruling, arguing that it allows racial discrimination in admissions. The case raises questions about the use of race in admissions at military academies and the broader issue of affirmative action in higher education.
