[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who cares? It's a local matter and not within his jurisdiction as a U.S. Senator. [/quote] True, but he does have a leadership role in the Democratic Party in this state. The optics of the changes are bad. The lowering of the standards will hurt all students alike, regardless of race. NAACP missed their chance to use the low URM enrollment at TJ as evidence that they need better programs at the schools serving URMs. That would have actually addressed the issue at its roots, and would have benefited att the URMs at those schools. Instead, our local NAACP person pushed for equality in admittance to a merit school. She is either thinking backwards or really does not care about the URM population at large[/quote] the optics are not bad. The best case is that TJ matches the diversity of the county. When it doesn, when no African Americans and no Hispanics, that is bad optics.[/quote]
