Um...so how are those students going to do in their classes?

I guess they'll just be endless source of funding towards the bad classes that they fail.

Well, none will probably fail. If Admissions let them in, you can bet there are safeguards in place to prevent them from failing.

Historicaly the "affirmative action" students drop out/fail at very high rates. Not completing degrees.

They took up space and resources, which could have been used by a better qualified person, that would have graduated.

It would have been much more effective for EVERYONE if the affirmative action student had gone to community college, learned material to bring them up to freshman college level.

One scenario: win-win.

The present system: lose-lose.

I garantee they're getting grants and scholarships that are intended for smart kids with "financial" disadvantages. These kids should be in community college taking remedial classes. No wonder they were against Prop 54.

Leftist education institutions have an unoffical policy of objective grading. Just to level the playing field you know. It is more pronounced at some universities than others, and depends on the number of professors that are willing to engage in this unethical kind of social engineering. Some professors just cave into the leftist agenda, since failing to promote the incompetent can spell, "career ender."

Of course a number of graduates come out of these institutions with credentials and no credible job skills. They fake it for a few years until someone dies from medical malpractice or a building falling down.

This is the reason that bureaucracy exists. It is to compensate for incompetence. The problem is that bureaucracy frustrates the qualified and diminishes their capacity for acomplishment. The qualified seek other avenues to succeed in. For the institution that let the wrong people on the bus is is a slow death spiral.
