So they changed it. And now the kids i teach, most of whom are korean and have perfect sat scores cant get into places like MIT bc the colleges need to meet their woke diversity quota.

I believe you are correct. I'm white and I am old enough to remember that back in the day, if you went to a hospital and saw a black doctor in the emergency room, you would think "Wow, this guy must be super brilliant. He overcame all that discrimination and still got through medical school. I want him (or her) to treat me." I do not advocate going back to the days of discrimination, but today some people (even black people) are scared (hopefully for no reason) that a black doctor might have gotten an easy path to the MD just because he was black. I think there are enough smart black people to excel at difficult professions if we mainly stand out of their way, providing some encouragement and financial assistance if necessary, just as we do for everyone else. Just my humble opinion.

@@StephInOttawa Your question implies that there are more white people with merit than there are in the race of the person you refer to.

Merit based hiring is the only true fair and equal way to hire people.

[@niarazu3883]

Per the data, the system is already lop-sided if certain races are born into socioeconomically disenfranchised situations whereby they receive less income, less tools at an early age, less educational attainment, fewer words spoken to them during the day by their parents on average, less interaction among like groups of socioeconomically enfranchised, fewer job opportunities, more police arrests per capita, fewer opportunities to establish learning and economic feedback loops in general to help them grow. It turns "merit" into a concept that relies on the status quo, and while merit certainly exists in principle, and "value" exists, you're not truly hiring on merit if someone that has been born to such a difficult situation is not being looked at for the amount of effort they've put in and the amount of ground they've had to cover, and forevermore an ostensibly "merit-based system" become a never-ending process of unfairness that, on a statistical basis, remains based on the color of one's skin and the surrounding experience and circumstances that person is born into.

I would want my kids judged on their merits not their color.

[@redacted8008]

Right? It's so incredibly racist to judge people based on skin color alone. It's obviously unfair to those who get passed up based solely on their race, but for the persons being admitted because of race it's also incredibly demeaning, as if saying, "you need this handout because you're not good enough on merit alone". How are people ok with this?

[@initiationintotruth1490]

I'm from Canada & it's become ridiculous here as well. Its very disheartening- this new narrative will just put unqualified people in positions of power who only subscribe to the so called "Woke" narrative. It's a very dangerous precedent indeed.

How dare he treat people like equals and just judge them by what they have done in there life. Crazy huh

[@Mrs.Blair_MPA]

All students should EARN their grades. I support this professor 100%. I don't need extra help in classes because I was born with brown skin or because I'm a lady (These facts are not disadvantages). This is pure malarkey. How can anyone NOT support this professor? This is a major issue in our society. If I earned a "B", give me my "B", don't give me an "A". 😔 My mother and father taught me better.

[@michaelmaps2004]

Well said

[@Mrs.Blair_MPA]

@@michaelmaps2004 thank you; furthermore, I strongly support students having a reference number so when they have examinations or papers, the professor doesn't know who the student is...they only have a number to identify their paper. Therefore, we can ensure that children or students are only being graded on merit.

[@michaelmaps2004]

@@Mrs.Blair_MPA Exactly that's what I always say that they should only have reference numbers because some names reflect a certain ethnical background and if a biased individual grades the papers they might use their bias against certain students to give low or high grades

[@kathrynbarbara967]

Super comment! And I absolutely agree with your reasoning. Also your response afterwards. Let everyone earn their grade.
