Long statement full of false equivalences.
Graduation rates don’t matter as much as total number of graduates.
If you don’t let a student enter school, then that student is not promising to begin with.[/quote]
You can’t be more wrong with the above statement.
First, students are STILL going to enter school. The question here is you want students meant for lower tier UC to go to higher tier UC. While promoting students meant for CSU to lower tier UC. And bump up CC students into CSU.
So let’s take 100 Hispanic students. And you create mismatch for all 100 of them, which lead to a 40% dropout rate, which means 60 of them go on and be productive citizens while 40 of them are dropouts no better than high school grads. That is better than making sure ALL 100 Hispanic students ALL getting into the RIGHT school evironment for them, which lead to 85 of them going on and be productive and only 15 dropping out?
