Diversity Strikes in Wisconsin
This is just utterly ridiculous:
The University of Wisconsin System is changing its admissions policies to consider race, income and other non-academic qualities of applicants with the explicit goal of boosting student diversity.
Until now, all campuses with the exception of UW-Madison have used set academic requirements such as grade point averages and test scores to make the majority of admissions decisions. The change means no student will be guaranteed admission to the system no matter how good his or her grade point average, test scores or class rank - although these measures will continue to carry the most weight. “There will be no automatic admission, even for top students,” said Larry Rubin, the system’s assistant vice president for academic and student services.
The matter-of-fact and proud way he states that merit will no longer win a student anything in his school system shows the utter bankruptcy of modern leftwing liberalism. What an outrage. Thanks to Owen at Boots and Sabers for catching this.
