The federally & state funded public Universities that will fall over each other to employ adversity scores as a pillar of their academic life, on the other hand... One can attempt to outsource responsibility from a legalistic perspective, but from a moral perspective one can't escape it.

That seems like quite a stretch to rationalize why a private entity making decisions about its internal processes is actually government mandated overreach.
