The U.S. Naval Academy has been sued by a nonprofit advocacy group over its race-based admissions policy, which the group says gives advantages to minorities.

The Oct. 5 lawsuit was filed against the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland by Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA). SFFA had earlier succeeded in getting the U.S. Supreme Court to strike down race-based admissions at colleges and universities.
