The University of Washington's Back Door Affirmative Action Plan

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reports on University of Washington :

This year, however, who got into the UW and why changed dramatically. For the first time, UW admissions staffers read each and every one of the more than 16,500 freshman applications -- a process that took four months, 40 readers and hundreds of hours.

The university is no longer accepting students based primarily on grade-point averages and standardized test scores. Now what courses a student took, the clubs she was in and her family's income, among other factors, are also considered.

You might ask what does a student's family income have to do with gaining admission? These university bureaucrats will never obey the law.The only answer is private education.
