Who else opposes race-based affirmative action?

<p>I also don’t think affirmative action is very fair. I’m so glad Cali schools don’t have it.</p>

<p>The OP may have said some things that didn’t make much sense (didn’t express himself well enough), but I agree with the gist of what he’s trying to say. Either he didn’t know any better, or he just got tired. It doesn’t help to have several posts from goingmeta.</p>

<p>Noimagination said:</p>

<p>“Unfortunately, your failure to address legitimate criticism makes your opinion less-than-credible. Post #27?”</p>

<p>“Students poor enough to receive federal aid would get the same aid elsewhere. If you’re also talking about research funding, see post #12.”</p>

<p>I don’t see how you would get a significantly smaller amount of federal grant aid at other institutions. However, top-rated schools like the Ivies do cover the entire tuition and R&B if you are Pell-eligible. I take it that you aren’t eligible for much federal aid, noimagination?</p>

<p>Ever heard of: [Project</a> on Student Debt: Financial Aid Pledges](<a href=“http://projectonstudentdebt.org/pc_institution.php]Project”>http://projectonstudentdebt.org/pc_institution.php)</p>

<p>“Increased yield because prospective students want diversity, greater probability of generating future leaders in an increasingly multicultural world, making up for past wrongs, etc.”</p>

<p>Past wrongs? Are you kidding me? Only a ■■■■■■ would say that.</p>

<p>Need makes sense to me, not a stupid concept like race.</p>
