Andy Warhol paintings have no meaning whatsoever other than as proof that “art experts” are idiots.

Do I pass?

I don’t know if I could fail that exam even if I was drunk off my ass. I’d pass all 3 exams I was looking at. These losers (winners) will all be broke again. At least they can go on not teaching any kids anything.

When you reward failure you get more failure.

So, grow up stupid, fail exams, get big money.

I’m getting sick of these mega-million lawsuits which are metastasizing like a horrible cancer. Hundred+ million lawsuits are now routine, and often awarded in a politically and racially biased manner.

“The Board of Regents on Monday eliminated a requirement that aspiring teachers in New York State pass a literacy test to become certified after the test proved controversial because black and Hispanic candidates passed it at significantly lower rates than white candidates.”

New York made their bed, let them sleep in it.

The bad part is, other more responsible states will have to bail them and California and Illinois and Washington and other Great Reset focused states out in the near term, until the whole USA is bankrupt. Did

How exactly is awarding these individuals $350k each for failing a responsible settlement?

All adult Americans should be allowed the opportunity to take this test online and have their test scores ranked in real time.

It’s obvious these fools wasted the taxpayers money going to college but it’s also obvious they’ll never be “teachers”.

Fact-based tests that all teachers should know for their subjects, are not racially biased tests. All these people are contributing to the downfall of our country.

Don’t need no tests.

If the powers that be in NY aim to de-emphasize “institutionally white supremacist” education, and focus on teaching about race and gender identity rather than “white supremacist” subjects like math, science, Western European culture, etc. then what they need is an oral interview or essay in which the applicant can demonstrate the “correct” perspective.

The fruit of affirmative action.

People who are not qualified to teach can’t pass the teacher exams and then are rewarded with a windfall for being too incompetent to do their jobs.

I don’t suppose that anyone involved in this noticed the huge number of PoC who DID manage to pass the test. If it were racially biased, then they would not exist.

Therefore the only conclusion to be reached is that those who failed weren’t and aren’t qualified to teach, and it’s NOT racism.
