[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why did MCPS put most of the magnets in the lower income (and predominately URM) schools if not because of using location (and race) as the reason? If MCPS can use location and race as a qualifier for putting in magnets programs in those places, why wouldn't they use location/race as a qualifier for students to be admitted in those magnets?[/quote] MCPS did use location. MCPS says it used location. It is illegal for MCPS to use race. Are you saying that MCPS did use race, and if so, what evidence do you have?[/quote] As stated, it just so happens that location has become a proxy for race since most of the URM happen to live mostly on the eastern side.[/quote] To repeat: location is a terrible proxy for race.[/quote] Said no anthropologist, politician or socialogist ever.[/quote] Says the data.[/quote]
