I didn't mention anything about "ending the requirement for a college degree", my claim was that IQ does matter but other features matter just as much, and a college degree turns out to be a solid proxy for _many_ of those features.

I also did not claim that the IQ test itself was biased. I'm not quite certain which of my claims you're responding to.

I'm responding to the actual context of this entire thread, not attempting to make a point by point rebuttal to anything you said.

If IQ isn't the only thing a college degree is a proxy for, that just means we'd need to offer companies even more than just IQ test if we want to remove the college degree requirement.
