If I didn't know before, it says in the article.

"There is no such thing as society: there are individual men and women"

Interesting with your comment.

From Meharry's website

Mission True to its heritage, Meharry Medical College exists to provide excellent education and training in the health sciences with a special focus on providing opportunities to promising African-Americans and other under-represented ethic minority students.

Anyone know how much state and fed funding Meharry and Howard receive annually?

A mind is a terrible thig to waste?

When I was a premed in college, there was a special program to assist (tutor) minority students in some of the difficult premed classes like organic chemistry. A friend and I came across study notes from this tutorial group before our organic chem final. We went through the study notes for practice. And guess what the final exam consisted of? Those study notes and practice questions, meaning that the minority students were given a copy of the actual exam ahead of time. If this same approach is taken at the mentioned medical schools, it is no wonder that their graduates are incompetent. Not only is it bad for patients, but the poor doctors find themselves on the wrong end of lawsuits (plaintiff lawyers don't give a @#$% about diversity), disciplinary actions, and the like. Not fair to them either putting them in a situation where they are destined to fail.

I know. I used to laugh at the antics going on over at Meharry. Losing corpses, embezzlement, fraud and last but not least discrimination against white folk (even though they were paying the bills). A real circus.

Uhhhh...let me guess.

They turn out the Medical School equivalents to Jayson Blair in the journalism field?

How'd I do?
