Liberals are very sensitive when SAT data is used against them because they can not effectively defend against it. If a majority of the black/hispanic affirmative action students with low SAT scores entered the university and graduate with good grades, then one can argue that SAT scores is not a good indicator. This is not true. SAT scores and the probability that the student will graduate from college are linked. Most students who fail college entered with low SAT scores. Very rarely does students with high SAT scores fail college. That is why the SAT was developed for pre-college testing. College is not cheap for families and taxpayers. It should not be squandered in a PC experiment, it should be givened to students who are qualified.

How does the Univ know the SAT score of the ILLLEGAL immigrant student? Since more than 50% of my property taxes supports the school system, thie offends me highly. Ask me what I could have done with the school tax portion of my property taxes since 1966 on 3 homes. That would put alot of money inth the "economy" or into savings. Instead, it is gone, squandered, and this is the hubris of the big shots in charge. If anyone on FR that doesn't live in Calif doesn't understand why we threw Davis out of office, this is just a little peek at the problems out here. PLEASE, Arnold- STOP THE MADNESS!
