Having sat on many admissions committees I can tell you there is no way a gifted black student is ignored. To the contrary.
Lyndon Johnson's "Great Society" demolished the black family structure in a mere two generations.
I doubt that the KKK could have designed and executed a plan more destructive to blacks than the one liberals came up with.
“Hope I’m not nit-picking ... but do you really mean 36% or 38%. I see where the population says 36% in the article, is your 38% a typo?”
It wasn’t a typo, just poor reading comprehension.
“Honor students (A + B grade) students were in the upper 10% of the population. and ‘A’ students were in the top ~4-5% of the distribution”
Remember when you had to have straight A’s to get into schools like Harvard? Standards are among the first casualties of the diversity movement.
Tim Kaine is packing to leave the Executive Mansion and seems to have misplaced his relevance.
In full disclosure, my son is in the gifted program in Chesterfield. I know it sounds like I’m bragging (and maybe I am), but since he was so far ahead of his classmates, it was that or private school.
And in complete full disclosure: blond hair, blue eyes, and he shares his dad’s pasty white skin.
What if he goes looking , but doesn't like what he finds?
Will we see a dramatic scene of him pounding his fists on front door at the offices at NEA/VEA and shouting "Damn them... Damn them all to HELL!"?
