Everyone gets free college
Heck just give them a degree ....... medieval French literature should open appropriate doors
President Xi and Putin are smiling...
Complete BS. So quotas are what matter.
De Blasio has been trying to get rid of the special high schools for a long time. This is his latest tack.
“...in a complaint set to be filed Monday to the U.S. Education Department that the lower admissions rates for Black and Latino students to the selective high schools show the selection rules have a discriminatory effect — even if the rules appear neutral on the surface.”
This is EXACTLY why this crap (laws like this) needs to be PREVENTED...the country was promised over and over again that there would NOT be quotas, only equal access. Sorry, but judges can and do reinterpret laws any way they want.
So they’re saying blacks and Latinos are too stupid to meet standards?
The soft bigotry of low expectations.
Hurts them, doesn’t help them. As with most all progressive actions.
School choice apparently was not of interest to inner city voters because they voted for anti-choice Biden. Reap what you sow.
No problem, get rid of selective entrance standards and nobody will be able to attend an “elite” public high school because there won’t be any after the first cohort of “diversely studious” students gets shoved in. Everyone gets dragged down to the lowest common denominator because personal achievement is racist.
Each student is assessed as an individual, not as a member of a group. The idea of group discrimination can only come after these individuals are assigned to a group. Who makes that assignment and decides what the groups are?
show the selection rules have a discriminatory effect
I discriminate in a great many things, like eating Frosted Flakes instead of a mixture of grass, dirt, and motor oil.
Proper discrimination is good.
