I wonder how many of these schools consulted the parents before making a decision. Most likely none.

They can’t break the law. They can decide to what degree they can (or can’t) support behavioral or learning differences.

Our private kicked my kiddo out for having ADHD so yes- they can do what they want.

This is 5-year-old news that was hashed out when it was actually news.

Hard to imagine (unless have a financial interest in the College Board) an issue less deserving of DoJ anti-trust attention. As the statement opined, it appears that they colluded but no one gives a sh*t.

Well, violating the Sherman act is not according to the law. So no, they shouldn’t do whatever they want.

The issue wasn’t about ending AP courses. The issue was how they coordinated in making that decision.

If you read carefully this is what I said : " I found interesting that the most prestigious schools violated the Sherman act"

I found interesting that the most prestigious schools violated the Sherman act when they decided to eliminate AP courses.

This just reflects that the schools do not behave competitively but Agree on policies that benefit them and hurt students. It tells a lot of what is really important for these schools.
