Coincides with the nationalization of student loans added to obama care bill. Will result in reverse discrimination.

Since they are disconnecting achievement from college admission status, one day a college degree will cease to be the “ticket” to a good job. We will go back to the original formula that HARD WORK makes you successful. Somewhere along the way that got perverted into this notion that a college degree is what makes you successful. The degree has come to be viewed as the CAUSE of success, when the truth is, or rather used to be, that the same achievement, hard work orientation it took to get a college degree, served the person well and led to success in life. All of this diversity stuff is going to make college meaningless, much as those trophies that are handed out to EVERYONE.

considering the drivel taught at ‘leading universities’, I already consider an advanced degree about as worthless as used TP.

Obama’s philosophy....

“Of the Negroes, By the Negroes, and for the Negroes.”

Whitey need not apply.

Well, OK, but when are we going to reinstitute anti-miscegenation laws? You can’t have diversity if everybody looks like Tiger Woods.

Well, since the presidency is now an affirmative action hire, why not everything else?

So Obama, you hypocritical racist POS, profiling is OK for university admission but not OK for protecting us against Islamic terrorists. FUBO and that goes for that Terrorist/Bigot Defender Holder you appointed as well.

I was discussing this very thing with my wife. My wife is a Filipina we met during the Gulf War. We have both worked on international contracts. We were considered odd, even in our family. Now we have two family members working overseas. We find more young people willing to work overseas. Especially if they are recent grads in the current economy. If international companies offer HC packages why not go to Dubai or China.

AA in the referenced post stands for affirmative action.

Statement: "Obama Administration Files Brief Supporting Racial Preferences in University Admissions"

Response: Of course! A conquering people typically give themselves preferences over the vanquished. In short, as the Gaul said to the Roman; "Woe to the conquered."

You are correct. We are very near a tipping point where a BA or BS in non-tech fields is equal to a High School diploma. Once having a degree meant you were a good prospect because it took commitment. Now they offer a BA or BS in fields of study that are just stupid. Who would you hire the person with a degree in Progressive Comteporary Reed Manipulation or Business Management? We are dumbing down the system. Some third world schools are more competitive and have serious curriculum.

What's wrong with Texas?

Obama is only filing a brief in support of the policy of The University of Texas!

Republicans have controlled Texas, both executive branch and legislature for 15 years straight now, yet they have left in place diversity czars that push raw racial discrimination against whites.

And everyone here is mis-focused on Obama. The focus should be on Bush (the past failure) and Perry (the current failure) who are liberals.

If the GOP is unwilling, even when given the overwhelming support of white voters to take the basic steps (replacing chancellors, removing minority appointees, updating regulations, instructing bureacrats to cease and desist on AA plans, etc) needed to address our issues then we are fools for continuing to support them.

We are losing the country by inaction and the polite, diverse GOP is part-and-parcel of the problem.

What's wrong with the GOP?

Yes, we know how much kids who are raised by a bank vice-president and sent to the most elite private schools need a leg up in life.
