Why is the university of California dropping the SAT?

Black, Latino, and Asian people all oppose racial preferences in admission: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/02/25/most-americ.... For example Latinos say that race and ethnicity shouldn’t be even a “minor factor” in college admissions by a margin of 2:1.

Like many things, this is in large part about liberal white people wanting to engage in social engineering on behalf of minorities who mostly don’t support their policy. Like “defund the police.”

So what is the correct understanding of affirmative action, you thinking people?

> 30 years of conservatives not understanding what affirmative action is really the reason for this.

And yet you haven't made any persuasive argument about what it "really" is or why it's good.

> But, then again conservatives aren’t thinking people.

Imagine the hubris someone must possess to casually dismiss millions of other people as "not thinking".

Have you looked in the mirror today?
