It has been proven that Asians start the college entrance review with a negative 35 points, whites at negative 15 points and blacks at a positive 35 points. Nothing about this is equal. I myself having only 1 point difference with my friend did not get into college. He went on to have a white collar career. While I went on into a blue collar career. The point I want to make is this bullshit entrance exam and an unfair point system means many men, and racially different people are getting sidelined and denied higher education. RETURN TO MERIT.
Entrance exam into a city job without a degree African-Americans got 20 points going in, then they gave it to Hispanics. My friend who was laid off from Honeywell, went to get a job with the city. Was one point off from a guy who was given 20 points. The best person did not get the job. This d e i shit has been in play in areas for decades now!
Affirmative action.
Those entrance reviews should have no mention of race, or anything else about the person as a person, just the test results and previous achievements or lack of. If there is some proof that maybe some racial groups, or people with certain backgrounds or even sexuality may have more problems once accepted - which may be true, I'd guess that somebody, no matter how intelligent, who, say, grew up in the worst parts of a city, or maybe the poorest area of some reservations, might very well have more problems adjusting to those systems - then maybe arrange some help for them after they have gotten accepted, counseling, some extra tutoring or whatever. But don't give them more points or any other favoritism when it comes to getting in for that.
And no real favoritism afterwards either. I wouldn't mind help once in the system as personally I had what seems to be a fairly normal problem for some high IQ types, school had been so easy for me that I had not really learned how to work for getting results, so once I got into university and got some extra stress outside of that too, my mother got sick, I just could not manage, but I might have been able to do it if I had gotten some real tutoring in addition to a few discussions with a shrink. But I didn't, and the end result was a blue collar worker in worst paid jobs, those anybody physically normal could do, with Mensa level IQ - which perhaps can be seen as a waste of resources. I didn't know I had that IQ until I got tested a couple of decades later, and when I was young I never understood I was underachieving, and presumably neither did my teachers or even parents, as I did get good average results in tests most of the time. I just didn't work much for them. So my worst problem later was bad work habits, and trying to learn good ones when already an adult is not necessarily easy, or done fast. I still think I might have been able to do that if I had not been also worrying about mom, but also that if I had already learned how to work hard I probably would have been able to keep doing it even with that extra worry.
When it comes to that "high IQ" problem those kids should really be found during their early years in school, and not allowed to coast on what is too easy for them, but gotten on different classes where they need to learn good work habits as early as possible.
The whole system of schooling, from beginning to higher education, really needs an overhaul. As it is there is a lot of potential going to waste. All types of potential, people who would really do well in trades getting pushed to university education they can then not use well even if they graduate just because it is seen as more prestigious, people who would have the intellectual capacity to do well in jobs that need that never getting a chance because the system has been trying to "balance" everything when it comes to sexes, colors and whatever, so they either get passed in spite of working hard because some "more underprivileged" get preference, or because as individuals they didn't get the support they would have needed earlier, and so on. Treat humans as individuals, not as cookie-cutter groups based on some superficial outer markers.
The main thing these days, when it comes to education, would probably be what I didn't get: teach them to work hard, from early on.
And after that, a merit system. No favoritism, some extra tutoring and counseling maybe for those who seem to need those, but if they can't get results even with that at most maybe try to find something they could manage for them.
And as a society, what needs to be done is trying to bring value back to work in general, any work. Cleaners and trash collectors are as necessary for a well functioning society as are university researchers, so their work should be seen as valuable too. At least as valuable as that of some entertainers...
Democrats don't consider Asians to be included in "diversity". Just black and brown.
While they tend to vote Democrat, democrats have trouble controlling Asians like they do black people. Remember that 'stop asain hate' campaign they promoted awhile back and the media kept playing up white people being racist towards Asians? They largely didn't take the bait and it was pretty quickly revealed that 90%+ of crime committed against Asians are committed by black people and they dropped that campaign real quick.
We all have to realize, especially those in the Trump administration, that simply passing legislation or an EO outlawing DEI and other forms of affirmative action programs doesn't actually solve the problem. The same people who are in the admittance offices haven't left yet and are still up to their old tricks.
What should happen are random audits of those who are turned down against those admitted. If it's found that discrimination is still happening then Trump should pull their accreditation as a college until that problem is remedied. Put their whole existence at risk and my guess is that you'll soon see real action.
I understand what you are saying. There's tons of things need fixing, but if you have a decrepit castle that had been neglected for several hundred years, the first thing to fix is the roof and the walls before all the other details.
The UC schools have had some wacky admissions even back in the late 90s. Many friends had the same experience as this guy... Not getting into school. But no one ever thought it was based on race. We all just thought it was just how uc operates... I had a friend get denied to ucla but accepted to Berkeley (example)
Not getting accepted to cal poly SLO is rediculous though.
Make them pay.

Damn, that's really damn. I didn't know this.
Did the kid have the wrong skin color or lack of sexual deviancy?
It would be better if worked for DOGE than Google.

Stanley just saved himself a lot of money and indoctrination. He goes to the head of the class!
Probably better he didn't go to indoctrination camp.
