Free money to UCLA via the government in the form of education entitlements, right? What a racket.

Federal and State civil rights investigators pore over businesses and schools searching for racially discriminatory conspiracies against African-Americans, but they have failed to find these conspiracies. Instead they have had to invent them and sue over disparate impact. But the vast majority of disparate impact claims are not the result of a calculated racial policy. Nor do investigators claim that they are.

However the disparate impact of covert affirmative action in colleges like UCLA is a calculated conspiracy and civil rights investigators won’t touch its blatant discriminatory impact on Asian students.

The usual leftist double standards - all to get preferred groups into schools that they're not equipped to benefit from.

All this BS should have ended before it started. One freaking vote in Bakke v. California Bd of Regents would have at least slowed this nonsense down considerably Even though we know the left would keep on conniving (unless it affected their own employment or admission of Lil Darlins)

There is absolutely no reason for Caucasians and Asians to vote for liberals. You’re only screwing yourselves

“The graduation rate at UCLA is at 92%. For black men it’s at 74%”

A law could easily fix that.

"A Life Challenge Index increased admission chances for students who were single parents, poor or had gone to bad high schools."

Unbelievable. Being a single parent somehow qualifies you for an advantage in college admissions?

I just read that Jane Fonda is going to be the graduation speaker at UCLA this year. Maybe she will treat the graduates to a live performance of one of her exercise videos. I can’t imagine what else she has to offer.

The way you fix this is to allow white people to register as African American under the belief that they just can’t prove they aren’t African American.

UCLA was already using personal stories of hardship as admissions criteria.

Reminds me of something, with a modern "overlay" causeth me lunch to rise to the occasion.

A news clip WRT recent dumbing down of SAT’s had a latino mother speaking Spanglish that she paid thousands (guess she earned all that money flipping hamburgers /sarc) to have her son coached-—but he still could not answer the questions.

So they had to dumb down the test b/c these people know nothing about American culture, and, more likely, don’t want their kids being forced to learn it.

The Third World is here.

Great post/thread.

The indoctrination of children with a mob spirit-under the category of “social adjustment”-is conducted openly and explicitly. The supremacy of the pack is drilled, pounded and forced into the student’s mind by every means available to the comprachicos of the classroom, including the contemptible policy of grading the students on their social adaptability (under various titles). No better method than this type of grading could be devised to destroy a child’s individuality and turn him into a stale little conformist, to stunt his uniformed sense of personal identity and make him blend into an anonymous mob, to penalize the best, the most intelligent and honest children in the class, and to reward the worst, the dull, the lethargic, the dishonest.

Still more evil (because more fundamental) is the “discussion” method of teaching, which is used more frequently in the humanities than in the physical sciences, for obvious reasons. Following this method, the teacher abstains from lecturing and merely presides at a free-for-all or “bull session,” while the students express their “views” on the subject under study, which they did not know and have come to school to learn. What these sessions produce in the minds of the students is unbearable boredom.

But this is much worse than a mere waste of the student’s time. They are being taught some crucial things, though not the ostensible subject of study. They are being given a lesson in metaphysics and epistemology. They are being taught, by implication, that there is no such thing as a firm, objective reality, which man’s mind must learn to perceive correctly; that reality is an indeterminate flux and can be anything the pack wants it to be; that truth of falsehood is determined by majority vote. And more: that knowledge is unnecessary and irrelevant, since the teacher’s views have no greater validity than the oratory of the dullest and most ignorant student-and therefore, that reason, thinking, intelligence and education are of no importance or value. To the extent that a student absorbs these notions, what incentive would he have to continue his education and to develop his mind? The answer may be seen today on any college campus.
