The GOP’s war on racially diverse college campuses was never going to be confined to the party’s war on affirmative action.

    This is not clickbait, this is what slippery slope is.

    Btw, at risk of you accusing me of changing the topic, they didn’t go after Legacy admissions. Legacy admissions is not the strongest candidate, or the best candidate. It’s the children of people who went there before, take a guess who benefits from that.

    For me, saying no discrimination either way (affirmitive or negative) and working towards it

    If you believe that you’ve been duped. Ever wonder why their public schools are in shambles?

    You should watch “Beau of the fifth column” on YouTube.

      Legacy admissions are some real BS. I guess it does not ring alarm bells in my head as immediately because its not obviously unconstitutional. But it is a rather nice roundabout way of discriminating. For any school that takes public funds, legacy admissions should be forbidden.

        Guess which one is much, much larger.

        At its core, legacy admission is discrimination. We don’t have to twist ourselves into knots about legal definitions, we can all see that at its core it’s discrimination. (Or selective picking, if you’d rather use that term, that is not based on merit.) If the heart of this is fairness then why aren’t Republicans chasing after that?

          Yes, I agree. Or rather, I think favoritism is a better word. They prefer the children of their “friends” (alumni). Which is kind of ok as long as it is just their own money, not public funds. But with public funding, it is basically shameless embezelment.
