Main Street: Speaking at free-market think tank events at the Heartland and Acton Institutes, economist Dr. Richard K. Vedder discusses university financing, bureaucracy and political correctness. He also suggests private funding alternatives.
opinion jasonrileywsj To harvard Harvard , let's bring real diversity to light, that disadvantage groups, includes those who lack the political power/ support to voice and participate to bring diversity. How can you be so ignorant as to deny the politically weak as much as the poor were?
opinion jasonrileywsj Disadvantage groups include political disadvantage, people who lack the political strength as much as economic power to voice, promote, and participate in politics, community affair and other main stream social activities.
opinion jasonrileywsj So in another word, this country has never progressed beyond the 1910's or 1920s. Even-though, it has implemented the civil rights act of 1964. Most often ' Social & personality deficiency' is a direct result of social discrimination to outcast and alienate certain groups.
opinion jasonrileywsj As I've said before, and the judge agrees, Harvard's race based quote system of admissions is not a race based system of admissions.
opinion jasonrileywsj Already decided equality for all
opinion jasonrileywsj Nothing will really ever chg. Preferential college treatment been going on for years. 1 donates $100K, all they ask is to admit kid, its more than tempting. But, what I keep thinking is: if the kids cant meet ACT stds, how do they pass classes? CollegeBoard JudicialWatch
opinion jasonrileywsj There never has been equal treatment. If you have enough money, play the right sport or have the right last name, admission will be worked out.
opinion jasonrileywsj Maybe it's not the quotas stealing spots from Asians, probably all those spots going to people making six figure donations. People forget getting in is just half the job you still need to do the work or pay someone to do it 😉
opinion jasonrileywsj Başkan size ölsün🔺👁️👌
opinion jasonrileywsj Affirmative action has run amok... Always check the minority box for advantage!!!
opinion jasonrileywsj You don’t have equal treatment of individuals when you have legacy, sports and huge donation admissions. Eliminate those and you have a good starting point in making the system more fair.
opinion jasonrileywsj How about we leave preference to the college to decide but we make it TRANSPARENT. How about local state universities (like ucla) giving preference to students in their NEIGHBORHOOD. To cut down on the cost of college.
opinion jasonrileywsj The elite get preference and the so called under represented gets preference the donors friends and kids get oreference, academic and administration kids get preference. It doesnt leave a lot of spaces for the meritorious or the superior.
opinion jasonrileywsj Here’s a question: what are the data points that they are using to determine that Asians have less desirable personality traits? The only thing I can think that would reveal that is the essay.... are Asian applicants just writing worse essays?
opinion jasonrileywsj However, if they to do this they must be honest with their applicants and each year spell out how many Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, athletes, legacies, etc. will be admitted so they can more properly weigh their odds of admission as well as the value of the degree. 2 of 2
opinion jasonrileywsj Colleges and universities are either in the business of pursuing and delivering academic excellence or they're not. If they're not (if they choose to overlay social justice or other non academic objectives on their academic mission) that's fine. 1 of 2

opinion jasonrileywsj Equal. Imagine not hiring the best candidate.
opinion jasonrileywsj It's up to each institution to do what they think is best vs a democratic vote of the masses. Based on their decisions they will be judged by their output, fundraising, employability, starting salaries, etc... Harvard seems to be doing just fine
