These policies presume that white applicants are somehow being disadvantaged - but that’s not true. (Asian applicants - different story.) And by the way, in California where I live, nearly 3/4 of college age residents aren’t white. www.ppic.org/publication/...

Because university administrators actually agree with Trump and he’s giving them the permission structure to enact changes they already wanted. It’s why the were quick to abolish DEI on campus’s. It also shows that they care about money more than they care about their own values and principles.

You fascists bound to lose @haf118.bsky.social

Really - all universities have to do is classify students by SES. Poorer students are multi cultural by housing patterns. So white students as well as (likely more) minorities will get chosen if they choose these criteria. And it’s laughable that universities only choose on SATs and GPAs (1/2)

Nothing wrong with making it merit-based if every single race will have equal opportunities to obtaining high merits. And with everything going on now, we know they're working to make sure this isn't so. While a non-white with high merits will obvioulsy be shunned because of their skin color.
