Heidi Alagha spoke to Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne after today's ruling. He say's he support's the high court's decision to overturn the precedent that's been in place decades.
TUCSON, Ariz. — While Thursday's Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action won't change the way Arizona's public universities conduct the application process, the decision will impact high schoolers in Arizona who are applying for universities out of state.
According to Horne, the impact the ruling will have will be simply to bring the focus back to education: “The result of this case can be directly tied to individuals who have bankrolled multiple lawsuits to dismantle the Voting Rights Act. Race has never been a defining feature in admissions, and affirmative action has only ever given higher education institutions the opportunity to holistically consider students’ backgrounds, their contributions and how they will enhance the college experience.
