The real problem is not in the acedemic requirements, but instead the inner city schools and bad parenting. Maybe they should focus on the problem for once
That is politically incorrect, so don't look for them to focus on it.
I don't see an actual problem for the university; they are now required to only admit those who qualify on an academic basis. This should actually improve the university; one of my classmates managed to get into UCLA with a 2.9 GPA simply because he was black. Better students, regardless of race, are a plus.
