The ongoing debate over diversity and admissions in US colleges.

The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) industry, worth $10 billion, could be hit if the Supreme Court rules against affirmative action for college admissions. Corporate lawyers say big companies are getting increasingly anxious about the future of DEI as the court is set to decide on the constitutionality of using race for admissions at Harvard and the University of North Carolina. If the Justices rule against affirmative action, it could strike one of the biggest planks of the DEI industrial complex, with money going to organizations based on race or race used as a factor in employment and promotion. Companies are preparing for the worst, with some reshaping their DEI policies to funnel money into race-neutral endeavors.
