Would also like to point out that poor black and Hispanic kids would likely do poorly on these “holistic” admission criteria, if administered honestly.

Which they won’t be, of course, and the “holistic” criteria in their case will consist primarily of noting their skin color.

If the Mayor gets his way, the schools will develop a de facto quota admission system by race, and their standards and performance will drop dramatically.

BTW, if we need de facto quotas to keep the number of Asians down, why don’t we impose similar standards to keep Jews from getting in above their percentage of the population? Anybody want to venture a guess about what percentage of the “white” students in these schools are Jewish?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hm?.....About the same percentage of students who attended the professional school where I earned by doctorate. Let me guess! ....About 95%?

I wish FR had an edit option.

“my” instead of “by” and “on” instead of “one”
