If you say race matters in admissions then you are a racist

Should be solely on merit!

Race should not be considered if we want equality!

Information of every student should be shown as a number or code . No last name, no gender, no race info. Admissions should be solely based on merit, test scores, volunteer work. Once accepted, all that info can be shown.

Who cares, White women are the most beneficiary of affirmative action anyways.

As it should be. Race should never be a consideration for admission. It should be based solely on merit and grades.

About damn time. College admissions should be based on merit and test scores. Not race. Good riddance for discrimination.

It should be by merit and grades alone. Not sure why anyone would think different
