SFFA v Harvard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Students_for_Fair_Admissions_v...) outlawed affirmative action in public institutions, but I think most legal observers assume that if someone brings a case against the same thing in private institutions to the Supreme Court, they'll outlaw it there too.

Also, 2020 California Proposition 16 failed. It would have overturned a 1996 proposition that similarly banned affirmative action in the state.
Harvard is a private institution.
