Exactly. If the community college class was inferior, the credit would not transfer to the university when the student applied to continue with their bachelors degree.

There should be no discrimination against or in favor of anyone. Period.

Tell me you’ve never been to college without telling me you’ve never been to college.

If the credits transfer, it’s good. Otherwise it wouldn’t transfer.

It makes you wonder how a kid (Barack) who admitted in his biography that he went to class high and skipped school alot during his high school years was admitted to Columbia Univerisity.

Can we all agree on this: Thank goodness Joe Biden is not sitting on the Supreme Court. The guy has gotten this and just about every other policy decision totally wrong.

“Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.”
-Joe Biden

and regarding desegregation of schools, Biden co-authored anti-integration bills! These are facts, Jack!

Don't believe me, read this article from NBC News - 2019
Joe Biden didn't just compromise with segregationists. He fought for their cause in schools, experts say.
Joe Biden helped give America the language that is still used to oppose school integration today, legislative and education history experts say.


"Unless we do something about this, my children are going to grow up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with tensions having built so high that it is going to explode at some point. We have got to make some move on this.”
-Joe Biden

First applied, first accepted. This works for concerts, airlines, DMV, etc.

That’s why the left are hypocrites. They only pretend to care about minorities from an arms length.

As soon as POC start “taking over elite liberals colleges” and “self-identifying as white” the left has a huge problem and draws a line.

I have a few questions regarding this issue. Why were the service academies given a exemption for AA and how does indian students figure into this equation. Asian students are the ones being highlighted but I would assume indian students face some of the same issues. They seem to be excluded from this conversation.

They are for draft dodgers like Bill Clinton to hide from being drafted to go to Vietnam. He lost his scholarship later when he was accused of raping a student and the administration told him to leave.

Clarence Thomas is getting his revenge on Joe Biden who tried to "high tech lynch" him during his confirmation hearings for the Supreme Court.
