Yup, no “mandate” at Harvard, but:
Sixteen editors shall be selected through a holistic but anonymous review that takes into account all available information. The Review remains strongly committed to a diverse and inclusive membership.
Applicants who wish to make aspects of their identity available through the Law Review's holistic consideration process will have the opportunity to indicate their racial or ethnic identity, physical disability status, gender identity, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. Applicants also have the option of submitting an expository statement of no more than 150 words that identifies and describes aspects of their background not fully captured by the categories provided on the form. Statements will be considered by the Selection Committee only after grading of the Subcite and Case Comment sections of the competition has been completed.

Haven't there actually been studies on black and white gpas in law school? OF COURSE:
https://ianayres.yale.edu/sites/default/files/files/AyresBrooksResponse.pdf
Richard Sander’s study of affirmative action at U.S. law schools highlights a real and
serious problem: the average black law student’s grades are jaw-droppingly low. 1 With
the exception of traditionally black law schools (where blacks still make up 43.8% of the
student body), the median black law school grade point average is at the 6.7 percentile of
white law students.
2
This means that only 6.7% of whites have lower grades than 50% of
blacks. One finds similar result if look at the other end of the distribution – only 7.5% of
blacks have grades that are higher than the white median.
This point has been observed previously by a number of scholars. See e.g., Gita Wilder, The Road to Law
School and Beyond: Examining Challenges to Racial and Ethnic Diversity in the Legal Profession (LSAC
Research Report, 02-01 (August 2003), especially pages 21-26; Timothy Clydesdale, A Forked River
Runs Through the Law School, October 2004 issue of Law and Social Inquiry; David Chambers, Get Title,
52 Buffalo L. Rev. 569-576 (March 2004).
