ACT gap indicates blacks less prepared for college

The Milwaukee Journal has this grim news on ACT numbers for some:

The results are in line with long term - but often unspoken - concerns among educators, business leaders and others that a diploma from many urban high schools does not carry the same implications about a student's accomplishments as a diploma from many suburban high schools, and that the rigor of what is expected in schools varies widely.

For example, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee officials report that 79% of students who graduated from Milwaukee Public Schools and entered UWM last fall needed placement in at least one remedial class, compared with 32% of students from all other high schools combined.

Like the term "unspoken".The tax paying public is supposed to just keep supporting a system they can't honestly talk about.How about that for coercion?
