UNC-Chapel Hill bars use of race in admissions after Supreme Court ruling

The UNC-Chapel Hill Board of Trustees voted to bar the use of race in admissions and hiring.
This follows a Supreme Court ruling that struck down their previous race-conscious admissions plan.
The new policy prohibits granting preferential treatment based on race.
Some trustees criticized the university's handling of past litigation over admissions policies.
UNC is exploring other options to promote diversity like tuition assistance and internal audits.
