Asians vs Affirmative Action

we'll see what happens once Trump and his corrupt cronies are tossed out in Nov.

 

How many people does Affirmative action effect because from my understanding of how it works it only applies to applications with almost the exact same academic record and extracurriculars where the deciding factor might be a underrepresented race.

Think of tie breaker scenerios in seeding in the NBA. Affirmative action using the NBA analogy would be like going down to the 7th tie breaker scenrios after all the first 6 are dead even.

How many people does that effect?

 

Speaking of Yale, do you think this Rastafarian triple crown weave queen Sheila Jackson Lee attended Yale without some form of affirmative action? She is dumber than a piece of rock and has been an embarrassment for the city of Houston for many years now.

 

I think that universities word their admission policy with an emphasis on economic standing. They want racial diversity and they get there via economic diversity.

 

Confirmed....
I am certainly a product of affirmative action. I always tell people that affirmative action may get you in the door, but it does not get you out of the door successfully. I welcome the fact that at Yale I was affirmative action as it relates to being a woman and an African American. Very few African Americans were admitted to Yale at that time.

 

These are not real Asians. These people have adapted the White Grievance Mentality and are now no longer welcome at the weekly Asians Zoom webinars.

 

but not as dumb as 03, who is dumb enough to parrot the convenient lie that

"even Californians hate her (Kamala Harris, the winner of 3 state-wide elections)"​

 

Also, a lot of people that complain about it think that students can be broken down in numbers.

Student A scored higher than Student B on testing so that means Student A deserves to get in over Student B.

But Yale, Harvard, etc, do not look at it this way. They take in basically EVERYTHING they can about a prospective student. Not just their test scores. Especially a school like Yale.

Students are more than their test scores.

 

WOW. I'm just waiting for a picture of you with a Tiki Torch or in a Klan Hood.

 

She is smart enough to graduate from Yale (AA is not going to do the work for you.) and take advantage of that opportunity. Embarrassment? The Right just hates her because they can't beat her in an Election.

 

I'm okay with Affirmative Action for economic disparities, but I don't buy the numbers shell game.

The process in many colleges have elements that are arbitrary and it took several rounds of litigation to slowly unveil.

Part of it is to cover for the donor class but I guess it's too contentious to make fully transparent.

College Entrance is a crucial factor to the quality of life for many Americans. I wonder if the system is best answer for that critical bottleneck.

...Almost forgot about the Lori Laughlin cheating scandal. Poor yuppies getting outhustled by immigrant yuppies and Asian Americans with tiger parents.

If you can't beat'em, bribe'em.

 

Keep on being a stooge for WinnieTheFlu, no need for your pea brain in American politics. Just because you live in your leftcoast California, it doesn’t mean you know jack squat about your girl Kamala. Tell me again why did she drop out of the primaries?
You sound like one of those 50cent little pink soldiers that Winnie employs. Talk a big game but when face with some minor skirmishes like with the Punjabi troops, you tucked tails between your shriveled up little testicles and ran like a little Pangolin. I already had one little pink soldier removed from this place, care to be the second one?

 

End racism! Equal opportunity please.

 

He is lying. He lives in China. Dude is a Wu Mao.

 

Yale's private, so it's different, bit I know about some public systems such as UC.
As Asian-Americans are discriminated against by affirmative action, they are replaced by Asian-Asians, who pay out-of-state tuition. Voila! Money.

 

So if a private restaurant has two customers... a black and white one... it is ok to have a whites first policy? Because it is private?

What if I prioritize seating this way on a private bus line?

 

I don't think it is discriminatory for a college to elevate a group of people who have faced challenges in their lives because of the systematic racism they have faced. A school should be able to promote a group who had to overcome a single parent or growing up without the same access to tools such as test prep courses, tutors, and technology - or had to work a job or had parents who were not able to promote their education.

You can make the case that someone who comes from a disadvantage background and has similar qualifications to someone who has come from a privileged background is the superior student as the possess qualities to show they will not only bring to the university experience but also in achieving success.
