Random selection has its advantages, provided everyone is treated equally once admitted and the university does not reduce their academic standards to lower qualified entrants (let them flunk out). as well as disadvantages. I like the idea that all have a chance in gaining entry. I think Asians will have a better chance of increasing their numbers at the Ivy Leagues because their pool of candidates will be large as they gravitate to the better schools and thus have a better chance of being selected. Whites also, knowing that they will not be discriminated against vs people of color.Once underqualified blacks and hispanics who are randomly selected start flunking out in high numbers, they will start applying to schools that are more matched to their qualifications and have a better chance of succeeding. The rich will not be able to buy their way in
Are you kidding? They'll change the rules again. They're not concerned about actually educating... their only concern is OUTCOME.
They'll need the correct percentages of minorities graduating too...qualified or not.
