I have a headache so I'll break down how this thread will proceed: Luch will call blacks lazy thugs. I'll tell him to shut the f up and point out that I have cousins who are doctors and lawyers, as well as a brother who is an engineer. Train Dude will then come to his defense and talk trash he can't back up....I'm sick of these racial threads. |

Interestingly, because SAT and other achievement tests tend to overpredict NAM performance (belying any claim that the tests are culturally biased against NAMs; this implies that such tests are biased against Whites, if anything), the correct way to find the best achieving students would actualy be to apply a reverse-affirmative action of sorts, one that required a higher score by NAM applicants... |

SAT tests are excellent predictors of one's ability to do well on standardized tests. They reward hard work and kids whose parents have the time and energy to introduce their kids to intellectual concepts. They penalize laziness*, lack of interest in intellectual pursuits*, and kids whose parents are working two jobs and have no spare time.Most corporate and political leaders (if we can use those as measures of "success") did not do really well on their SAT tests. * Traits which many kids grow out of as they get older. |

Why should a police force's ethnic composition reflect that of the community?Why should a fire department's ethnic composition reflect that of the community? These are the belief systems that mirror true liberalism. Not the best qualified but mediocrity for the sake of diversity. |

In the case of the former, it prevents the populace from seeing the police as an occupying force as opposed to a group that helps them. I think though that the real reason they hate the police is because they like crime. So to answer that question: it shouldn't reflect the population.Firefighters there's no reason I can think of. |

It achieves racial balance without necessarily assigning racial preferences. California needs something like that for blacks and Hispanics to get accepted into the UC schools. UCLA has twenty-something thousand or more undergrads and their freshmen classes are only getting a couple hundred non-athletic scholarship black students. I've heard that some classes have had less than 100. |

Grades are a bigger part aren't they? Although some colleges will admit you based solely on SAT depending on your score. So it can work for you but not as much against as long as your grades are good. |

It also has an effect on the police not just the populace. I think that ideally you'd like to have police that live in that community. What they look like us secondary. Although if you have a diverse community a diverse force can help. Especially with multi-lingual communities. |

The issue here is that someone claims that she was denied a seat and that candidates who qualified under Top 10, but who had lower grades, were admitted instead.Unclear is if there are other grounds in play. |

The problem is that in a small municipality, the populace may be mostly or entirely unqualified to be police officers anywhere else. Should this community accept having a mediocre police force? Meanwhile, in a metropolitan city, or metropolitan police forces, should police officers live in the precincts that they work or should they live anywhere in the city? What about state police forces? |

I didn't say to admit on their minority status. I said that we could use the top 10% method. Hispanics are probably half the school kids but way underrepresented at the top state schools (UC schools as opposed to state schools). Probably 50% of students, 30% of graduates and 10% of UC students. Maybe less. |

One reason why Hispanics would make up a smaller percentage of top schools is that they have a high drop out rate in California. Especially among Hispanic males. Competing against Asians for spots can't help either. |

I remember what was supposed to be a feel bad story about an illegal immigrant that was valedictorian of some east la high school that wouldn't be allowed to go to college because of her status. The part that stood out for me was that she had a really mediocre SAT score. Not even top 25%. |
