Around 10 a.m. ET, the high court produced its 6-3 ruling that said race cannot be a factor in college admissions.The decision divided many liberals and conservatives. "Republicans stand for parents, students, and merit-based admissions that help kids achieve their potential. Discriminating against any student based on their race causes irreparable harm to families trying to achieve the American Dream, and we applaud today’s decision," Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said in a statement.
It remains unclear who is responsible for the"suspicious package" or whether any arrests have been made.
