  • holding that the “negative conse- quences of racial isolation that Lynn seeks to avoid and the benefits of diversity that it hopes to achieve” constituted com- pelling interests
  • holding that when racial diversity is the compelling interest — “[t]he only relevant criterion, then, is a student’s race; individualized con- sideration beyond that is irrelevant to the compelling inter- est”
  • holding that a “transfer policy conditioned on district demographics (+/- 10- 15%)” was not a quota because it “reflects the defendants’ efforts to obtain the benefits of diversity in a stable learning environment”
  • contending that a school district’s noncompetitive transfer plan violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment
  • noting that the circumstances where this doctrine can be 27 properly applied are “exceedingly rare”
