Seems like it would be easy to make prima facie case and hard for an employer to prove a BA is necessary and tailored for most jobs, especially when the requirement is satisfied by a degree in any major from any school.

Obviously disparate racial impact, i.e. requiring a BA has a disparate impact on URMs.

Well written tests are usually bad and id argue requiring any old BA is worse.
