Yeah, the College Board is so left wing

They are scrambling trying to stay relevant with colleges looking more and more at not requiring a general admissions test and the number of high school graduate age folks dropping 15% over the next few years plus heavy competition from the ACT coupled with a wave of anti testing sentiment (from the Democrats btw) they are in panic mode to preserve their bottom line.

The gov is passing out loans like peanuts.

The universities are willing to expand the admittance requirements to get the money which will raise demand significantly. Economics.

Imo, forgiving student loans would make this worse.

Cut and paste for those who don't subscribe to WSJ, and show us specifically how this is a leftist-driven agenda.

Or did ya just make that part up?

On second thought, if this was done correctly and fairly...

I could see it working well. No preference for minorities for they already get a leg up. No consideration for race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or social status. The criterum should be a bad home life, being educated in schools which can't educate due to being filled with kids who only attend to stay out of the detention centers and reform schools.

Poverty level and other non political identifiers would possibly make this beneficial to the universities. Do away with SATs and lean toward folks with real life experiences including military service. Give kids who have worked their way through life much harder than the kid whose biggest challenge was which pair of jeans makes their body look sexy.

If only, right?
