[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is Youngkin going to empower VA parents at UVA?

Will he put them on the admissions committee? Help define course catalog? Tell professors what they can teach?

Parents have get a voice, right? [/quote]

No need for stupid sarcasm.

It is a legitimate policy debate about how universities should admit students and whether transparent college admissions cutoffs using purely academic performance is in fact the most equitable and fair way to admit students and also the most socially-beneficial to motivate students to learn the most during high school.

Because actually every other country in the world, i.e. 94% of the world's population does it that way, including lots of multi-racial and multi-ethnic countries and many countries with Black majorities and many countries with Hispanic majorities, many countries with White majorities and all Asian countries as well.

That’s right. You are a PARENT. You pay taxes. You have have a voice. You can criticize any aspect of education in VA that you want.

You go talk to that manager!

The difference is that students at universities are ADULTS.   Students in elementary/middle/high school are MINORS.

Or are you one of those "PARENTS" that thinks your college kid is still a "CHILD?"[/quote]

OP refers to her “KID” so she’s in “PARENT” mode.

Or should we say “KARENT”. [/quote]
