You should to hesitant to judge these students too quickly. Black students regularly get admitted into schools/programs for they are marginally qualified. That's the nature of affirmative action.

Students who then encounter difficulty in meeting standards are not going to blame themselves, but rather attribute it to racism or whatever.

Affirmative action has been a cancer on higher education and done a disservice to everyone it was designed to aid.

That is exactly how I see it and why I said what I did. It’s time to purge unqualified students, regardless of race.

Ever read “The Bell Curve”? It got a lot of flack, but in retrospect it is acknowledged as being pretty spot on.

There is a reason most pro ball players are black, and most top mathemeticians are Jewish. And I’m neither.

Fact is, different races have different strengths.
