The Second Circuit has reinstated a case alleging that changes to New York City's admissions process for eight prestigious high schools discriminated against Asian American students. This follows a broader trend of legal actions and rulings related to discrimination and affirmative action in educational institutions. Furthermore, the Supreme Court's decision in SFFA v. Harvard has prompted universities, including Cornell, to adjust their admissions policies, resulting in fewer Hispanic and Black students and more Asian students in incoming classes. MIT data vindicates discrimination claims of Asian students.
