Trump to put an end to consideration of race in college admissions: good or bad thing?

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/03/us/politics/trump-affirmative-action-race-schools.html

From the article:

In a joint letter, the Education and Justice Departments announced that they had rescinded seven Obama-era policy guidelines on affirmative action, which, the departments said, “advocate policy preferences and positions beyond the requirements of the Constitution.”

Additionally:

A highly anticipated case is pitting Harvard against Asian-American students who say one of the nation’s most prestigious institutions has systematically excluded some Asian-American applicants to maintain slots for students of other races. That case is clearly aimed at the Supreme Court.

I don’t support affirmative action as a principle (especially when it causes unfair discrimination as the Harvard suit claims), so I consider this a good move by the Trump administration.
