JUSTICE ALITO, with whom JUSTICE THOMAS joins, dissenting from the denial of certiorari.
The Court of Appeals’ decision in this case is based on a patently incorrect and dangerous understanding of what a plaintiff must show to prove intentional race discrimination. A group representing applicants for admission to a highly competitive public magnet school brought suit, claiming that changes in the school’s admissions requirements violated the Equal Protection Clause. They alleged that the changes were made for the purpose of discriminating on the basis of race, to the detriment of Asian-American applicants. The District Court found that direct and circumstantial evidence supported that claim and issued an injunction against implementation of the changes. On appeal, however, a divided Fourth Circuit panel reversed and held that the plaintiff ’s claim failed simply because the challenged changes did not reduce the percentage of AsianAmerican admittees below the percentage of AsianAmerican students in the schools in the jurisdictions served by the magnet school. What the Fourth Circuit majority held, in essence, is that intentional racial discrimination is constitutional so long as it is not too severe. This reasoning is indefensible, and it cries out for correction.

"The school board stopped requiring a $100 application fee and standardized tests for admission. It also adopted a holistic review process that considers “experience factors” such as a student’s eligibility for free school lunch, their status as an English-language learner or attending a historically underrepresented public middle school. The school board also said the admissions process must be “race-neutral,” and admissions decision-makers will not be provided an applicant’s name, race, ethnicity or sex."
LOLz.
