Can't wait until we divide numbers among "black", "white", "hispanic", and "asian" values.
What happens when you B1+W2?

Agreed. There really should be a limit on where a school should teach "ethnicity studies" and similar.
Maybe if ethnicity studies weren’t objectively beneficial, you might have a leg to stand on.

I mean, that wasn’t the point of the what the study was looking for, but probably? It did increase GPA by an average of 1.2, which, while sounding small, is actually really good. So, yes.Strahcoin wrote:[Kowani wrote:Maybe if ethnicity studies weren’t objectively beneficial, you might have a leg to stand on.
1. Did it increase the students' chances of getting productive jobs? Schools are supposed to make citizens more productive.
2. Did it teach children to ignore unalterable characteristics such as race/ethnicity and judge solely on merit? A moral, united society tends to do better than an immoral, divided one.
Read the study I gave you, don’t ask me to do your work for you.
3. Were other factors considered? What was the sample size? Statistics can be easily manipulated.
