Given those marks, and the fact that Wang doesn’t appear to have any character or criminal issues, you would think one of the admissions departments at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, California Institute of Technology, Princeton, Harvard, Carnegie Mellon University or the University of California, Berkeley, would give Wang the time of day. You would think wrong. Wang told Fox that he was rejected by all of them.

Soon the 'Elite Universities' will start losing their 'elite' status because so many of their graduates will be duds. They'll be avoided and will stop getting the best jobs.

A solution is to create new colleges that ONLY accept on merit - in time they'll become the 'elite' schools of the future. MIT can only coast on their old line reputations for so long - and then the ugly reality will take over. Eventually the world always agrees that "the proof is in the pudding"... and these school will not be able to get their old reputations back.

That’s not a solution that’s THE solution. Get together and go to schools that want you.

There are a lot of colleges out there. They just don’t have the name recognition the Ivy League institutions have, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have excellent instructors and courses. Some of them aren’t even “woke”.

Already happening, according to John McWhorter. These schools thrive on foreign students paying top dollar. They will be in a big hurt when that dries up.
