[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s sad that blacks are fighting to be treated like children and given extra points on standard sized tests so they can gain admission to top colleges. Why not just earn admission like everybody else? [/quote] People have such a narrow view of "earning admission." There are always complaints on DCUM about athletes taking spots. University representatives (coaches) are practically begging those kids to attend and they are in the top few percent of their sport nationwide or even worldwide. Schools are not just looking for 4.0/1600. Based on the case record, the Harvard Admissions Office could clearly use some unconscious bias training though. [/quote] It's not unconscious bias. It is deliberate bias so they can meet their quotas.[/quote]
