| Topic | Justice Department to take on affirmative action in college applications |
| Sad_Face 08/01/17 9:19:21 PM #40: | DifferentialEquation posted... What do you mean by "contribute to the student life"? Why should you prioritize that and achieving a certain demographic over simply picking the most qualified students? Because you still have to live and interact with those very students for 4 years. At any engineering school, the application pool is going to have a ratio of 7:1 male to female and the ethnicities I mentioned before dominate these fields. That means they could easily create a class of solely males. This is bad for the student population because those students are going to be disappointed over the gender ratio, and it's bad for the school because it's going to deter potential applicants (both male and female) from applying during the next application cycle. The school is still a business, they have everything to gain from being choosy and risk a lot settling for a homogeneous student body. --- imgtc.com/i/4HgTl0ebzq.jpg imgtc.com/i/60CWP2Gtlg.gif ...
