US-JUSTICE-SUPREME COURT-FILES
(FILES)The US Supreme Court Building is seen in this March 31, 2012 file photo on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. The US Supreme Court elected not to rule on the constitutionality of using race in university admissions on June 24, 2013, instructing a lower court to look at the question again. Its decision left unchanged the principle of "affirmative action," an enduring legacy of the 1960s civil rights movement intended to give African-Americans a leg up in applying for jobs and education. In the case before the court, Abigail Fisher, a white student denied admission to the University of Texas, alleged its use of race in deciding admissions violated her constitutional right to equal justice under the lawAFP PHOTO/Karen BLEIER/FILES
