It’s ruining the brand names.

Who do you want as your doctor the most qualified, right?


Law schools are toying with doing away with the LSATs. This country is getting ridiculous in the name of equity/DEI.

They are mocking us.


Is this the FOX News version?


Nice try, but the cute bashing of Fox News lost its luster when the Left & their media partners decided it was open season on Jews.

TIL that parochial high schools are for the poors.

Not exactly surprising, if correct, but the number may have been higher in years past.

University of Oklahoma might be a better fit. Oklahoma just banned DEI offices in colleges. In addition, the college has upperclassmen housing modeled after Harvard and Oxford. Several majors including meteorology are ranked top 10 in the country. And it's way cheaper.

This is the sort of hypocrisy that spawned the MAGA movement, & is giving it new life for 2024. The woke elites want open borders but migrants flood already crowded poor neighborhoods. They want soft-on-crime DAs but they can afford private security. They preach diversity but it’s Biden or Newsom who will be the nominee in 2024.

Massive numbers of niche athletes come out of the private independent schools. Or go there for a post grad year to get their academics in better shape for the Ivies.

So 40% private school students, 40% QuestBridge / “holistic review” wink-wink students, and 20% unhooked white and Asian superstars.

Checks out. 60% paid / 40% full subsidy. Question is, will the brand persist following that formula?

Independent private schools (not the Mary O'Mary's Catholic/parochial school for girls and boys type that middle and lower middle class families send their kids to), comprise 40% of the student body at most Ivy League schools.

Where is the outrage in the name of equity? Where are the protests? The changemakers? Maybe there will be a sit-in at Harvard this admissions season, definitely at Brown. Rise up, no equity, no peace...
