A report in the LA Times revealed that blacks and Hispanics get bonus SAT points at elite universities based on their race. Asian students however are penalized 50 points due to their race.
The LA Times reported, via DownTrend:
Lee’s next slide shows three columns of numbers from a Princeton University study that tried to measure how race and ethnicity affect admissions by using SAT scores as a benchmark. It uses the term “bonus” to describe how many extra SAT points an applicant’s race is worth. She points to the first column.
African Americans received a “bonus” of 230 points, Lee says.
She points to the second column.
“Hispanics received a bonus of 185 points.”

Welcome to the Watering Down of America. I remember many friends that tried to get in the Maryland State Police were denied the opportunity because they were giving preference to Blacks because of their race.
ReplyDeleteThis is nothing new, but it has to stop some time. Blacks still claim racism, but this is pure racism.
How do you think that retard Congressman Sheila Jackson Lee got a B.S. degree from Yale then turned around a got a J.D. from the University of Virginia law school. Because of her race. She had two things going for her. She was a black and a black female. WTF!!
Disgusting! There should be no bonus for stupidity, no penalty for intelligence. Liberals are continuing to destroy society.
ReplyDeleteWith six years in to the current Affirmative Action test showing nothing but complete failure, we should stop all implementations of AA.
ReplyDeleteI lost out on a slot at the Naval Academy because I was a white male...and was told so.
I lost out on a commissioning program later because they had quotas for latinos.
I have seen the results - one person gets unfairly helped - another gets unfairly screwed.
Similar now trying to get a civil service job - you gotta know an insider, be disadvantaged, and fill out the form just so (and that's a secret).
I really liked the old days when you had to earn what you got!
3:05 That sucks#!! People wonder why we are going to hell in a basket. Then continue to dumb things down with AA. It is white racism. That's why I left the Marines after being passed over several times. I can still see my black commander's face smirking when he told me.
ReplyDeleteThis culture has brought America down to their level. We now settle for not the most qualified but instead for what's most politically correct. This is the dumbing down of America and this culture seems to pride itself for doing exactly this. When will we finally have enough??
ReplyDeleteI think it's actually funny that blacks willingly accept that they are inferior! They have to cheat to be equal.
ReplyDeleteThat is exactly what this liberal progressive policy states.
When will they learn, all men are CREATED equally but with different DNA and things change after the first breath.
3:06 Yet, you will respect what you earn more, and work harder to keep it. They will not. There is no pride of ownership, so they will squander their handouts. Unfortunately, our government, locally and nationally, just keep giving handouts after many, many fails. It's a shame. We need SOLID, well educated, PEOPLE... No matter of race, race is NOT a handicap, yet they exploit it as such.
ReplyDeleteDemocrats need racism to get elected.
