A recent poll found that 50% of adults disapprove of higher education institutions practicing affirmative action when admitting students. Before SCOTUS's term ends in late June, two related opinions will be released by the court.

The Pew Research Center survey was published Thursday, likely weeks before two related Supreme Court opinions are released by the end of the court’s term in late June, the Hill reported. The cases, Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard and Students for Fair Admissions v. University of North Carolina, will wrap up this month with the court’s decisions.

Most black adults favor affirmative action, with 47% approval to 29% disapproval. Hispanics, though, are divided evenly between 39% approval and disapproval.
