A Tiny Victory for Sanity in Higher Ed

[DGS49]

For two (2) years, MIT dropped its requirement for SAT/ACT scores at the insistence of Wokesters who claimed that those standardized tests unfairly excluded talented POC's. Grades and recommendations were substituted for such applicants.

MIT quickly noted that those students could not perform, and were likely to fail.

Who could have expected THAT?

MIT has reimposed the requirement for standardized testing. Hard to believe, isn't it?

Reversing DEI

MIT, caught in a bind, reintroduces standardized testing.

All is not well, however. The article also mentions that MIT has recently added a whole new DEI posse, including several high-level administrative blood suckers. And "we" wonder why college is so expensive.

Probably MIT will end up just like the video below, because BLM/ANTIFA will show their displeasure with that organization.

Most of MIT's degree programs involve hard sciences and people actually accomplishing something beneficial to society. There are a couple of squishy, useless vanity degrees, but on the whole, MIT got shit to do. They ain't got time for your woke bullshit.

SAT/ACT are on the way out. Something will likely take their place, but the wheels are turning.
