I also think it will be possible to turn the tide. Some colleges will still try to sneak in AA under other tactics but it will be easily proven that the admission was based mostly on race factors and not academics. And after 10-12 of these suits land squarely against AA in its many forms the colleges will slowly concede. I'm absolutely certain the recent ruling now gives many University leaders the tool they need to take their institutions back to where they already needed to go. Many were playing the 'go along to get along' game and supporting AA even though they likely didn't agree with the excesses that it was encouraging.Litigation is a necessary part of the solution. But I think conservative states should outlaw any forms of race essentialism in college admissions. Penalty should be firing and jail. Conservatives need to use power to reshape these institutions from the top down. DeSantis and Rufo are starting to do this in Florida. No jail, but they are firing people and others are quitting due to the pressure. I think most professors will just go along with the changes.
