[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are colleges so intent on lowering standards and quality in homage to “diversity” of any kind? Do we see any other nation in the world sideline their intellectuals in favor of “diversity”? I’m actually very interested in why colleges think this helps society. All these reparations for biased test questions? Have y’all looked at the the Sat questions? Please explain how these are biased in 2022? Honestly I fear for our future with this colllective stupidity. It may be rooted in kindness to help lower achievers but it will lead to the end of us all. [/quote]

First, there are many high performing students across demographics that can fill highly selective college classes. Academic standards aren't being lowered: top schools do have smart and diverse students.

Second, if the SAT/ ACT was an intelligence test your rant would make a little sense. Well,  it's not and colleges are making them less relevant for admissions. The College Board might lose out, but oh well.

Affirmative Action will be banned, but top colleges will STILL have diverse classes, and URMs and first gens will still be the scapegoats for UMC whites and Asains who didn't get into their desired school (s).[/quote]
