Campus Reverse Discrimination Pandemic Continues To Impair Students Ability to Think - U of Washington encourages professors to grade black students "more leniently."

"UW Senior Director of Media Relations Victor Balta directed Campus Reform to a message that was sent to all instructors Monday asking them “to consider that while we are together as a community, some are being affected more than others.”"

Note: Victor Balta's own description on LinkedIn:
"A print and online journalist for more than 15 years, ... I was the online news planning editor for Al Jazeera America in New York. I helped develop the website's editorial vision and voice, and was responsible for planning the website's coverage of major stories."

Anyone think Balta could be liberal biased ?

    It's just an extension of dumbing down America.

    I'm glad I'm no longer in the workplace where I've had to put up with this crap I refer to as "affirmative action degrees" first hand. I've dealt with affirmative action engineers that can't do basic math, affirmative action computer science people that couldn't write a line of code, and affirmative action business managers that couldn't lead an old lady across the street. To be honest, most were very nice folks, but their real "expertise" from all that education was how to play the race card and it worked for them!

    This reverse discrimination does a major dis-service to those who may appear to benefit. They get a certificate and maybe a job they do not deserve, clients and colleagues will have to carry them, then will avoid them. Those of the same 'victim' group who are good will suffer from false belief that they also have unjustly got their qualifications.

    Take a look at the Michaela School, UK. https://mcsbrent.co.uk/
    They get astonishingly good results from children in low income 'deprived', poor migrant areas.

    One of their policies is- no excuses.

    Only one parent, noisy family, drunks, drugs, nowhere to study, no English spoken at home?
    Then, 'You have to work harder', The school provides help to study but accepts no excuses. It works, results in national exams are very high -- not just compared with kids from families of poor unskilled workers and on welfare but compared with top academic schools.
    On top of that, the children are proud of their school.
