1. So if the supreme court ended 'racial discrimination' at universities in 2023, why is the administration destroying scientific organizations now in the name of doing so?

2. That court case is for undergraduate admissions - what does it have to do with hiring practices in the academic sciences?

1. It ended one specific form of racial discrimination, not all forms.

2. The user I replied to stated they have not been discriminated against. I corrected them.
