[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After the Supreme Court ruling on race-based admissions, most university presidents said they'd look for new ways to bring in the class they wanted.  Much of that Supreme Court case focused on differences in average test scores. So... get rid of the test scores. Problem solved.[/quote]

Some schools have been test optional for [b]decades[/b]. Others started when Covid-19 hit. That all happened independent of the SC. Now some schools are going back to requiring the tests and others are going to be permanently test optional - each with their own reasons. Believe it or not there are a thousand other things universities worry over.

Imagine managing a campus with a 150 year old aquifer. Or a coal-fired power plant.

There is a whole lot more going on than recruiting and admissions.

Uh huh. Except we know that in America today, and especially in the progressive hothouse of academia, everything is always all about race race race. [/quote]
