(Which shouldn’t be surprising given huge difference in academic index, LSAT + undergrad GPA) http://www.adversity.net/Sander/Systemic_Analysis_FINAL.pdf …pic.twitter.com/VWnW9mgntL
Goodness, any info if the gap has been closed over the years?
I'm not aware of a more recent analysis like this for public consumption, but I'm pretty sure things are pretty much the same right now because pipeline dynamics haven't changed appreciably and AA still very much active.
(Also I know people in this game and their reports are very much consistent with this data)
Why the need to hate people? You are the one with the problem. Why continue this insanity of white grievance? Is your life that bad??
Is what Mr. Sailer said inaccurate? Politics aside, it isn’t “hate” if it turns out to be factually correct.
Stereotyping people is wrong. You racists love to say you're only telling the truth but all you reveal is your own sickness. Skin color does not determine intelligence. What scientific theory would account for it??
There was no stereotyping here. The issue being discussed is the academic performance of a specific group at a specific institution.
You're a white supremacist and you're not fooling anyone.
You’re incapable of defending your own argument and you’re not fooling anyone.
Everyone knows you're pursuing a racist agenda. Racists and non racists alike know what you are doing. Judge people as individuals.
It’s not racist to cite statistics. Try harder.
That's not what the dean was quoted as saying. The NYT article quotes him: "Black students have graduated in the top of the class at Penn Law." Also, this was apparently in response to the first half of Wax's sentence: that she'd NEVER seen a black graduate in the top QUARTER
(For the record, here's what Wax said to Glenn Loury on Bloggingheads.)pic.twitter.com/RQCFXkh8Bc
My university students in China and South Korea have a better command of the English language. They're also far less delusional.
She didn’t say there weren’t any, she said there weren’t many
I'm dismayed that the Dean of Penn law thinks finding one X disproves the statement that few Xs exist. But then, it turns out our elites are not really elite, are they?
The real question is why is law school so rigged against black folks?!
Because they have some standards.
Racist standards. Clearly.
That ain't clear to me.
It must be. The only way there can be different outcomes is because of racism.
You can't think of any other reason? For instance, those students being less qualified?
That's just not possible.
Of course not. No school ever enrolls students who don't belong there for political reasons.
