Education SecCardona said his department will help universities find ways to boost racial diversity at college campuses despite the Supreme Court blocking affirmative action on Thursday. 'This is not the last word,' Cardona vowed.
"This is not the last word," Cardona vowed on ABC's Good Morning America Friday morning."We recognize the importance of making sure our college communities are as beautifully diverse as our country."Cardona set out a plan of action for his department to issue guidance and find schools that have set up successful diversity-conscious systems that exist where race-based admissions were already banned.
In July, the department will hold an educational opportunities national summit. By September, Cardona said the department will publish a report on national best practices for colleges with schemes to promote DEI.
