Diversity rates at several elite colleges and universities have plummeted, a little over a year after the Supreme Courts restriction on race-conscious admissions.

This post has been percolating in my head all week and I still don't know if I will be able to get what I am trying to say right, but I will try. So this has been a hard week for many.
