University of California to make ‘Anti-Racist’ Education a Prerequsite for Admission

The University of California (UC) system is set to implement new guidelines that will force all potential applicants to first take an ethnic studies or “anti-racist” course in high school prior to applying.

As reported by the Washington Free Beacon, the UC Academic Senate met on March 30th to consider new “course content guidelines” relating to ethnic studies classes that any future students would first have to take in high school. The guidelines dictate that students first learn about “the impact of systems of power and oppression,” including “empire,” “white supremacy,” “anti-blackness,” “xenophobia,” and “patriarchy” prior to submitting an application to any of the ten UC campuses throughout the state.

Previous efforts to mandate diversity education in California public schools had already been taken up by the state legislature and Governor Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.). In 2020, Newsom vetoed a bill that would have implemented a broad ethnic studies curriculum throughout the state, after conservatives pointed out that the bill would allow for the leading of ancient Aztec chants, but did not include Jews as among the minorities who have been oppressed throughout history. Newsom eventually signed an updated bill in late 2021 forcing all public high schools to teach ethnic studies courses by 2025.

The college admissions process has historically been a "system of power and oppression”, “white supremacy,” “anti-blackness,” “xenophobia,” and “patriarchy”.

The system heavily favors children of suburban, white professionals.

- Poor children need to work to help support family, so they don't have time and opportunity for extra-curricular activities.

- Poor children may not be able to afford the fees and equipment necessary to play on sports teams.

- Poor children may not be able to afford private college preparation courses.

- Poor children may not be able to afford the fees to take the SAT's and ACT's.

- Poor children may not be able to afford the fees for submitting applications to colleges.

- Poor children may not be able to afford to travel to visits potential schools.

- Even if awarded full scholarships, they do not always cover room, board, meals, books, fees, and other non-tuition costs not covered by those scholarships.

- The Ivy League universities used legacy admissions to discriminate against Jews and other ethnicities.

- Increasingly, racially-based affirmative action quotas are found to discriminate against Asian-Amercians.

The most significant "system of power and oppression" in our society is the college admissions process and the cost of college education.

Question:
Why would ANY parent of traditional-minded thought send their kid to the California university system?

I don't care HOW good it's supposed to be.

I'd tell the kid, "if you want to go there, fine, but I won't help you in any way".
And that would be the end of the conversation.
