Helios Education Foundation’s reaction to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to strike down affirmative action in college admissions

We are deeply disappointed in the Supreme Court’s decision to strike race from consideration in college admissions. We believe that this decision ignores years of work to create a more equitable higher education system, one that has produced diverse talent for our economy and society.

We remain committed to widening the path to opportunity for all students in Arizona and Florida, especially those from traditionally underserved, low-income, and communities of color. Working with our partners, we will continue to create pathways for all students to achieve their educational goals.
