[quote=FlyerInHi]Flu, affirmative action doesn’t lower academic standards. They are min standards above which student can be successful.
There is more to life than academic achievement, and people can be very productive with lower scores. Plus academic achievement is something accumulated in childhood. Adults do change.
But I understand that scores are objective measures and can be easily pointed to. It’s easy to say that a 4.0 GPA should be admitted over a 3.7 GPA.
What about the concept that private institutions should be able to admit whoever they want without oversight from Uncle Sam? Should Christian schools who accept some public funds be forced to admit Muslim students who wear the hijab?
And where do the lawsuits stop? Can employers be sued for not hiring and promoting the “most qualified” candidates? I guess the dumb kids of the founder are out of a job.[/quote]
Like I said. If you really care about the disadvantaged, you would stop talking theory, and start volunteering. But I am guessing like many that talk about affirmative action and the disadvantaged, very few actual bother to lift a finger to do the real things that would make a difference.
With that, end of discussion. I hope the Justice Dept is successful in completely ripping this bullshit to shreds.
And after that is done, it can go after every u.s. company that also has a underrepresented minority hiring practice.
And lastly..Brian, people like you are exactly why Donald Trump won. A lot of people hate people like you that tries to create and “solve problems” by with easy “solutions”, yet ineffective solutions that screw someone else over on the process and doesn’t really solve the real issue, besides pandering to the least informed minorities that buy into your “solutions” that don’t work. It’s no different that.trimp pandering to the illinformed middle America.
And because of that, all of us have to put up with Trump for the next 4 years definitely and possibly 8 if you keep up shoveling the bullshit from the waco extreme far left.
