Harvard loses no time in calling attention to the loophole saying they will comply with it.

"The court also ruled that colleges and universities may consider ... 'an applicant's discussion of how race affected his or her life, be it through discrimination, inspiration, or otherwise.' We will certainly comply with the Court's decision."
Or, "they gave us a loophole!"

Here's the full statement from Harvard.

The rest of the statement reiterates and repeats the credo:
"people of many backgrounds, perspectives, and lived experiences"
"diversity and difference"
"a vibrant community whose members come from all walks of life"
