Justice Department accuses UCLA law school of race-based admissions

Original: UCLA law school accused by justice department of illegally using race in admissions https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/

The US Justice Department has accused UCLA's law school of illegally considering race in its admissions process, according to findings reported by the Guardian. The accusation follows the Supreme Court's 2023 ban on affirmative action in college admissions, and the finding could trigger legal action or federal pressure on the University of California, Los Angeles.

Why now: It is a major federal civil rights finding against a top public law school amid ongoing national conflict over affirmative action.
