[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get it. I think this social justice experiment is going to sink the top colleges though. So it doesn't matter if you don't get in because the names won't be worth anything in a few years anyway.[/quote] Change is always hard for those who feel disadvantaged by a change.... The top schools are here to stay. It took 100s of years to get so powerful/popular/famous and it will take decades to change the paradigm. The feelings of certain UMC white parents are meaningless as long as elite kids and the likes of Amanda Gore are getting in to T30 colleges and making outsize marks on the United States. This approach to admissions is working very well for top universities. The point posters are missing is that there is an overall decrease in advantages UMC whites have received for any american prize (education/job). Elite people of any race are now getting those advantages over typical UMC whites. The sooner UMC white parents realize this the better for their kids-- develop an excellence at anything your kid likes and they glide through the door to all the advantages White UMC families had in the past. [/quote] Sorry. I just have this strong feeling that it is wrong to judge people based on the color of their skin. And I don't think this feeling will ever go away.[/quote] Now that doesn’t benefit you any longer? Got it![/quote]
