Exactly. The SCOTUS has become more concerned with their popularity than they are with upholding the Constitution.

Scalia wrote:

I adhere to the view I expressed in Grutter v. Bollinger : “The Constitution proscribes government discrimination on the basis of race, and state-provided education is no exception.” 539 U. S. 306, 349 (2003) (opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part). The petitioner in this case did not ask us to overrule Grutter’s holding that a “compelling interest” in the educational benefits of diversity can justify racial preferences in university admissions. Tr. of Oral Arg. 8–9. I therefore join the Court’s opinion in full.

Sounds like Scalia is specifically asking for a later appeal to specifically ask that it be overturned.
