United States First Circuit


Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College, 15-1823

In a case challenging Harvard College's consideration of race in its undergraduate admissions decisions, the district court's denial of a motion to intervene, filed by an opposing group of current and prospective Harvard students (Students) who claim to be benefited by the school's current practice, over the objection of both parties, is affirmed where: 1) the district court thoughtfully and carefully considered disposition of the Students' motion; and 2) the Students will find that amicus briefs will provide them with a fair opportunity to voice their views concerning the issues posed by the litigation.
