Listen to yourself. Transparency is needed. Schools are about learning and not MCPS changing criteria for students admissions to competitive programs based on the color of their skin.  Shame on MCPS and shame on the dotard who gave money to Metis for this study.  [b]They need to make public the scores of students who got in. [/b] This is a standard practice around the world.  That way you know if you have earned a spot because of your abilities vs your race.  It casts a shadow in the achievement of any URM student who actually gets in because of their merit because they get painted by the brush of being a product of affirmative action.  You think this does not create divisions and suspicion? You think as prospective employers people will not be wary of the qualification of URM students? There are repercussions that will continue for a long time.

That would be a violation of federal law. As admitting students because of their race would be.

I don't assume that black and brown people got ahead undeservedly because of affirmative action; why do you?[/quote]
