    Huge Consequences - No more Race Card in College Admissions

    New Beginning: Do you remember not getting into med school with a 92 average, a Bachelor of Science, the Governor General Medal, but 2 Malaysian twin sisters with lower averages and unable to converse in English got admitted? How about Government jobs when the qualifications were extensive experience in agricultural program delivery but low and behold, two applicants, an Angolan dock worker from Montreal and a new immigrant from Nigeria were shoe-ins? This is all going to change because one man Edward Blum contested this policy on a constitutional basis in US. Most universities, including Harvard and Queens used admission policy that disqualified qualified white applicants and admitted minorities instead. Apparently the judges disagree with this policy because Americans have constitutional rights to be treated equally despite race and colour. This discrimination is about to change, at last. Are we finally waking up? Bet old Chucky and Ag crapped the bed this morning when they read, “US Supreme Court delivers a set-back to Affirmative Action in College Admissions”.

          In Psychiatric Nursing, it was told to me that they don’t necessarily admit people with a Pre-Med 4-Year Bachelor of Science degree. Hmmm Probably white Anglo Saxons excluded to make room.

            Finally, maybe discrimination against white people will come to an end.

              Wouldn't that make most of the appointees in the current US administration unconstitutional?

                Seems sexual orientation is also getting people to the top, for some reason gender benders are held in high regard in some circles.

                  As expected the usual rightwing suspects are sure they are white victims and that's why they haven't done so well in life.

                  And discrimination against minorities and people of colour doesn't exist. LOL
