"But it may be worse than that.

Especially shocking is the language about “equity” in the distribution of grades."

Anyone who goes to this “school” is an idiot.

Saw this a few days ago. Gotta ‘spread the grades around a little bit.’

They won’t admit dumbing down standards and expecting less from minorities is actually the height of racism, but that’s exactly what’s going on.

Liberalism is a mental illness.

They are probably already doing it that way now and they just want to codify it.

They are going to do affirmative action on grades, just like K-12 schools are encouraged to do affirmative action on discipline. If a black kid wallops a poor white boy they better find a white kid to punish for ... something.

Now it’s grade inflation or deflation depending on skin color.

It is ridiculous.

“Diversity-based” grading = “Racist-based” grading

Might as well go back to segregated schools. It’s in the Dem’s nature it would seem.

Thirty-some years ago I told anyone who would listen that affirmative action would be the downfall of the USA. I was right - and now THIS bullshiite!

It means that the kids who couldn’t read but got into college anyway because of their skin color, will now graduate from college without being able to read and probably be accepted into graduate programs. We could have medical doctors who know less about medicine than their patients all to allow liberals to check their “diversity” boxes.

This is the worst kind of racism. I would be happy to debate Mr. Hansen (above) on why he thinks that someone with my background is not smart enough to earn legitimate grades

This, coming from the people that are always forever screaming about "EQUALITY".

Apparently these leftist hypocrites do not believe in equal grades for equal work.

So they think black people are too stupid to get good grades.

Good thing they’re liberals, otherwise they would be racists.

The same school that had to photoshop a black kid onto their Application booklet.

The next thing you know, the NBA will be out scouting for midgets. Charles Manson will become a licensed brain surgeon. Yasser Arafat will get the Nobel Peace Prize?

Look, for sixty years schooling in the US, on all levels, has been premised on a lie.

The teachers, and at higher levels the faculty, have deliverables that cannot possibly be achieved. And yet, they are hired, retained, and promoted based on how convincingly they claim that they can spin straw into gold.

Almost all possible avenues of accomplishing the goal of equality of outcome have been exhausted.

So, we may not yet have arrived at grades based on race. But it’s an interesting concept, and if not now, it will surely come to pass in the near future.

I have what I think is a pretty good way to achieve this goal: pay stupid white kids to sign up for class. Then, the white average would go down, and all the motivated students can be graded on their merits. In addition to achieving the the desired racial quotas and giving each student the grade he or she deserves, this has the added benefit of keeping stupid white kids off the street and out of their parent’s basement. They never have to actually graduate and come home. They way I look at it, it’s a win-win-win-win. Social justice. Personal merit. Slacker heaven. And needed relief for their parents.
