I know several well qualified candidates who were denied access to Med School because they were white.
Whites need to wear medical bracelets declaring themselves as LGBT Muslim Romulans.
To be honest I don't expect them to respond.
However,anyone with some free time and a spare dime might want to call their main number...(617) 732-5500...and ask for Public Relations and leave a message like I did.
To anyone who does call I might suggest that he/she refrain from mentioning Free Republic...for obvious reasons.
And just to make clear...this story,if true,is of massive importance because Brigham & Women's Hospital is truly one of the finest...and most famous...hospitals in the world.It,and Massachusetts General Hospital,are the two largest and most important teaching affiliates of Harvard Medical School. I'm sure I needn't spell out what this could mean for health care nationwide if the story is true.
Affirmative action is systemic/institutional racism/sexism.
In medicine, affirmative action can kill.
On April 30, 1996, Sen. Edward Kennedy vigorously defended racial preferences in a statement...
He offered proof. “Dr. Bernard Chavis is a perfect example,” Kennedy said. “He is the supposedly less qualified African-American student who allegedly “displaced’ Allen Bakke at the University of California-Davis, and triggered the landmark case. Today, Dr. Chavis is a successful Ob-Gyn in central Los Angeles...
...warning of Chavis’s “inability to perform some of the most basic duties required of a physician,” the Medical Board of California suspended his license. Administrative law Judge Samuel Reyes found Chavis guilty of gross negligence and incompetence in the treatment of three patients _ one of whom died at his hands. Letting him “continue to engage in the practice of medicine” the judge ruled, “will endanger the public health, safety and welfare.”
