The US Naval Academy has ended its affirmative action policy in admissions, a move ordered by the U.S. Court of Appeals as part of an ongoing ruling. The academy will no longer consider race, ethnicity, or sex in its admissions process, following directives from President Biden's administration. This decision marks a significant shift for the institution, which previously utilized affirmative action to promote diversity among its student body. The changes take effect immediately and are part of an effort to 'implement all directives' from the court ruling.
