First it should be noted that the low ranking of the educational system in the US is not applicable to institutions of higher learning. Universities of the US are still very much at the top in the world.danarhea said:Yale has admitted a former murderous Taliban leader who never finished high school, but got a GED instead. Not only that, but the Taliban leader only completed 4th grade. Oh, I forgot. He was the Taliban's ambassador. I guess that counts for something. It must count for a lot, considering the fact that he most likely displaced a student with a lot of potential, not to mention a high GPA in high school, which he or she DID finish.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Khadaffy Duck is giving a speech at Columbia University, and of course, Larry Summers resigned last month from Harvard University, amid the scandal there.
The Ivy league is not the same as it once was. After all, if men and women who arent the brightest crayons in the box are politically admitted over those who deserve admission, we have a huge problem. It is no wonder that our educational system today ranks with the third world.

One of the major reasons for affirmative action. Otherwise natural science and engineering departments would be full of asians.alphamale said:Asians are probably the people who lose most from "affirmative action". It's well-known that places like UCLA would probably be half to two-thirds asian, except for politically correct racial discrimination in admissions.

UCLA = University of caucasians lost in asians.
I have that exact same question to ask. However affirmative action seems to want to put a limit on that. FYI, I am asian.alphamale said:What's wrong with natural science and engineering departments being full of asians?

Affirmative action is a Democrat policy, not liberal. Liberals push for equal rights and diversity. That's you're ignorance to what it means to be liveral. Not to mention what the far right likes to call liberal. ie, the treehugging pothead hippy environmentalists.alphamale said:And, in terms of the american polity, a liberal. "Affirmative action" is a liberal policy. Ergo, one wonders what goes on in your brain.
jfuh said:Liberals push for equal rights and diversity.
Apparently though my brain is too sophisticated for you to understand.
I don't see how either of those two would make me seek pleasure in pain, abuse or domination.alphamale said:Given the liberal definition of "diversity", that's like saying liberals push for virginity and fuccking. :lol:
I know one thing about your "sophisticated" brainlol - if you're asian and for "diversity", you're a masochist.

GySgt said:However, your eagerness to place our educational system among the systems of third world states is absurd. Once beyond the rediculous debates and ignorant opinions in the liberal arts faculties, our knowledge industry has no precedent or peer. We atract the best faculty, the best researchers, and the best student minds from the entire world. The U.S. is also far ahead of other nations in the flexibility and utility of its educational system. .

You're kidding right? The republicans hardly represent conservative ideology just as the dems hardly represent liberal ideologies anymore. They only represent power mongering criminals.Synch said:AA is a liberal policy, liberals want forced equality, not equal opportunity, higher taxes, etc.
If something is neither liberal or conservative, then how could it exist if not agreed upon to be right by both parties?
jfuh said:You're kidding right? The republicans hardly represent conservative ideology just as the dems hardly represent liberal ideologies anymore. They only represent power mongering criminals.
The dems want AA because they want minorities to vote for them, that's the base that the dems try to appease.
AA is about appeasement, not political ideologies.
