Harvard Bans Alumni from Mentioning Applicants' Race or Religion in Admissions Reports

Harvard University has implemented a new policy prohibiting alumni interviewers from mentioning applicants' race, ethnicity, or religion in their admissions reports. This decision comes in response to increased federal scrutiny following a Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action, which has significant implications for how universities approach diversity in their admissions processes. By enforcing this ban, Harvard aims to align with legal requirements while navigating the complexities of maintaining a diverse student body.
