An Opportunity for AsAm Students
To Voice Their Views on Admissions
The NY Times published an article today under the category of STUDENT OPINION
At the end of the article, it gives the invitation below:
"Students 13 and older are invited to comment. All comments are
moderated by the Learning Network staff, but please keep in
mind that once your comment is accepted, it will be made public."
If you have relatives who are students, please encourage them to air their
views. Our younger generation is likely more eloquent and gutsy than us.
What this article is and is not about
The article basically takes the following view:"The admissions process is a maddening mishmash of competing objectives, and an attempt to measure the unmeasurable: you. No, it isn't fair, and likely never will be, " stated by Eric Hoover.
Note, however, the above statement notwithstanding, having the Asian Am. students forced to yield 140 SAT points to their white peers by elite colleges is DISCRIMINATION. Discrimination is CERTAINLY UNFAIR
80-20 EF is certain AsAm students can fight for themselves. We just want to make our students aware that they have a wonderful opportunity to do so. But Hurry! The window of opportunity will close soon, as the article will be withdrawn in a couple of days.
