Drop out rates would be an interesting metric…

Good book on the topic: https://www.amazon.com/Mismatch-Affirmative-Students-%C2%92s-Universities/dp/0465029965

Basically found that students who are mismatched (who attend a university inappropriate for their merit) drop out at higher rates than if they had gone to a school appropriate for their skill level.

Or student tuition support? Open to all? Is academic staff also racially selective?

Institutional racial discrimination.

To his credit, Trump signed laws banning race and gender preferences. Hopefully we will see level playing fields with no victimhood or gender nonsense.

The appalling effects of affirmative action have been around longer than most people on the internet have been alive! When I was at UCLA law school in the mid-1970s, I saw the actual admissions bar passage data for a couple of classes…back then the LSAT was on a scale of up to 800 (as the SAT was on each of verbal and math). The average (mean) black LSAT score (10% of the class) was 150 points lower than the mean white LSAT score - the only ‘black’ member of one class would have been admitted ‘on the numbers’ alone was a half-black, half-Asian military officer who didn’t even apply as black. Hispanic LSAT scores were 80-100 points lower. Bar passage rates were similar: 90+% for whites (and Asians) and about 65% for blacks.

What would be interesting to see here, is a full representation of all the data.

Why don’t you include rates of admission throughout the entire 1900s? Where is that extrapolated data compared to this?

How many non-whites were even admitted to universities before affirmative action was enacted?

At least then, you wouldn’t be a blatant propaganda piece pushing a narrative that the United States hasn’t systematically kept people of color out of higher education.

This will lead to the destruction of the college system or the destruction of the college. Either way it is a crass act of stupidity.

If employers have no way of knowing if a student is any good why bother taking on one with a degree? Obviously it will reintroduce racism amongst employers that have anything about them and the big "woke" will go broke.

Qualifying for college and obtaining a degree should be about ability and nothing else.

Curious about absolute numbers. How many blacks are accepted from that top decile?
