DEI is actually the exact opposite, that’s why Rs oppose it. Rs prefer a system of legacy admits and preferences for white males. |

It would be about half white and half asians with <10% black and hispanic seats at that table https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/sat-percentile-ranks-gender-race-ethnicity.pdf |

JD Vance had to have had good SAT scores to work at Princeton review, it is a requirement for the job. That probably means he had good LSAT scores. And he graduated summa cum laude. So he probably wasn't a DEI yale admit Clarence Thomas graduated 9th in his class from Holy Cross and had an academic reputation comparable to his Yale Law School Classmate Hillary Clinton. So he probably wasn't a DEI yale admit. |

He is the president and he was elected in part to get rid of DEI. |

It's called ideological purging. Some of it happens during the admissions process but the PP seems to want a second bite at the apple |

At the high end it does. Who knows what could have been if resources were equally distributed but at the point in time when college admissions are determined, the top 1% of white applicants are smarter than than the top 1% of black applicants and they both pale in comparisono to the top 1% of asian applicants. |

Look, folks, if you believe colleges should focus solely on merit, then US universities need to drop their holistic admissions model and do what the majority of universities in the world do--base admissions primarily on:
1) performance on a standardized national exam (e.g., China, S. Korea, Japan, Spain, Mexico, Greece, Israel) OR 2) high school academic performance (high school grades, typically from the final year(s) or a cumulative GPA, often derived from a standardized secondary school leaving certificate (e.g., Abitur in Germany, high school diploma in Canada). Besides Canada and Germany, also Austria, Switzerland, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Ireland, and Belgium are examples. |

As long as we kick oput all students that are drunk at 18. (there would literally be almost no students left by october). And are we suspending students based on accusations until "cleared" by the police? I didn't realize the police "cleared" people. And we already put people on ac pro for bad grades. |

Aside from asians, minorities are generally less qualified. https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/sat-percentile-ranks-gender-race-ethnicity.pdf |
