The way they will keep demonizing people who look like me is astonishing. I expect them to claim that scores can improve if you reduce the percentage of "non-white" students or if the school implements "assimilation" programs.

I’ll bet all $5 in my pocket this leads to hiring quotas for white men. Imagine a search committee has 4 finalists: 2 white men, a woman, & a minority. If a white man isn’t chosen, and yearly data shows they’re not a significant majority of hires/promotions watch how fast that becomes “a problem.”

Witnessed a beautiful celebration of students uplifting cultural impact, resilience, family, and the community that carries them through moments of isolation.
Amid the joy, I felt a quiet sadness—how many days are left where students can openly reflect on culture without fear?

These hooligans now think they have the power to force all institutions to use standardized testing for admissions.

Entire paragraph is just a flat out lie. Generalizing all of education/higher ed used to be beneath professionals.

Had a great time at the Boston MLK breakfast. Angela Davis spoke much needed words today as she also reflected on her time at Brandeis University.
