Texas Tech medical school will end use of race in admissions

Texas Tech University's medical school will stop considering race in admissions under an agreement with the Trump administration.

Under the agreement, which Texas Tech accepted in February, its medical school will "discontinue all consideration of an applicant's race and/or national origin" in admissions. The school is also required to revise by September all admissions and recruiting materials so they don't include race as a factor.

Just lively...so white only med school?

Your education should have Nothing to do with Race or Riches.

Both DeVos and Trump should rot.

She BetsyDeVosED lied to Congress, she said that U.S. anti discrimination laws will not be overturned. There is someone in this Trump administration that isn't a liar?

Suggested Onion headline: “Texas Tech will no longer consider race when recruiting athletes for football and basketball. Also they will be dropping down to NCAA Division III.”

Well that’s a good thing since they are going to be replacing my hip one day.

But will continue to take large donations in exchange for admissions 😒

Winning.

Wow now if we exclude gender we may see another white doctor.

I went to my local hospital last year to have a wart removed from my wrist. I was jabbed with a needle in the doctor's office and woke up screaming in pain, with my left leg missing below the knee. I asked what had happened and was told this: 'Shut the fuck up, you White Racist'

Here we go,,, down the rabbit hole. maddow Lawrence JRubinBlogger draiochta14 maydaymindy9

The point is reduce the effect of privileges. Fine, the university can still screen based on geography right?

About damn time. This is 2019. What in the world is going on. Race base admission?!? College admissions should be based on merit and test scores. Not race!!!
