Reply to comment by HenriettaHiggins in [OC] Racial breakdown of students at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Stanford compared to students scoring 1400+ on the SAT by tabthough
How is denying people who are intellectually capable in favor of 'URM's the right step?
This is what systematic racism looks like, and you're calling it good..

Must these schools be gatekeepers for meritocracy? Or are they providing a world-class education as defined by themselves?
In other words, why should a private institution be required to serve a meritocratic function, rather than be free to determine for themselves the product they wish to offer?

because it's nothing more than an ego-stroke on a resume. The final result is a piece of paper that says 'I PLAYED THE GAME'. And guess what happens when the URM's that played the game goes into a job interview and the other candidates didn't get the pity admission?
LOL, Systematic racism is alive and well and you act like it's acceptable.

I just think it’s more complex than any single factor or goal. And I think there’s a free-market for private institutions so long as they’re not actively discriminating against any single individual or barring entire groups based on race.
