The experience of two highly selective public U.S. law schools offers a guide for other schools to admitting diverse students should the U.S. Supreme Court ban colleges and universities from considering race as a factor in their admissions decisions, as it is expected to do before the term ends this month. Enrollment at the University of Michigan Law School and the University of California, Berkeley School of Law among Black, Hispanic and Native American first-year students plummeted after both states banned affirmative action in public university admissions. But over time each school found new ways to boost their percentages of those diverse groups beyond pre-ban levels by adopting strategies that other institutions likely will mirror if the Supreme Court prohibits public and private colleges and universities from considering race when admitting students, as plaintiffs in a pair of cases before the court have asked it to do.
