Following the Supreme Court's decision striking down affirmative action, colleges are under scrutiny to reveal their admission statistics from last April.

A review by Democracy Forward found that most Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs challenged post-decision continue to have a strong legal basis.
