Always don’t riot

Never to the police hearing my voice stop killing people

Never to the police hearing my voice don’t harm protestors

Then invoking the names of people you kill to tell everyone to behave... y’all cause all of this... it’s you. Stop doing it
Would i personally riot... who cares what the answer is

I understand witnessing people being killed over and over and over again and no consequences

How many people do you expect to kill without consequences
The riots are only happening

The looting is only happening

Because y’all keep behaving this way. So BE BETTER AND STOP KILLING US
I’m not going to get to the should I condone or not condone riots because y’all can’t be bothered to get to should the police be killing people in the streets part

Discuss that first...

Let me explain what I think students need for test-optional to be effective

1. Announce test optional
2. Tell students they won’t be penalized
3. Then tell students HOW applications are reviewed with scores and without

1/
4. Then tell students reviewing with and without certain scores is normal- some schools have test others don’t, some people have AP, others IB, others have standardize scores
5. Tell students some students have some classes others don’t, some students have opportunities

2/
6. Essentially explain there is not this “if all things are equal” and “a student who has the higher score will get the slot”
7. Explain how test were used and how that’s change
8. Explain this is not out of pity for certain students

I have students deciding how much to pay for undergraduate, where to go, and whether it’s worth it to go to a more prestigious school to better chances of med school

I only know hidden cost of law school (bar exam, living expenses)

MDs- thoughts?

What do you wish you had considered for undergrad, did you make mistakes or choices you regret, what do you wish you knew going into undergrad, advice

When @TheAmandaGorman said she only kept the gold of what she wrote and it was through questions and reflection after Jan 6th that she came to the mother-load of gold during her @Oprah it shifted the way I decided lead as we create narratives for college essays
I truly believe a good essay is never for college admission but a reflection of who you are and where you are at in the moment. It can’t be for the purpose of admissions but for self. And with the Black girls in my group it is a way to process everything and come to acceptance
And when you hit the right words or language it feels like you have arrived to where you need to be. It’s not for college but for self and happens to be something you use for college

When @howardrgold1 keeps showing up but is unable to answer for

1. How he was attacked
2. Why I owe him the labor of critiquing the entire article instead of focusing on the harmful parts
3. Why he perpetuates the model minority myth for Asian students

1/ ImageImageImageImage
4. Why he doubts my lived experience so much that when I said this is my students response his claim is doubtful but he believes Pierre without even verifying his I spoke to ivies claim

2/
5. If he ever verified Pierre’s claim that he spoke to ivies and they rely on the test- did he follow up with those at the ivies to make sure this information is accurate
6. Why he spoke to counselors about their perceptions but didn’t ever follow up with admissions

I spoke out yesterday in the Black alumni @virginia_tech group about how my Black student was awarded $0 in aid

I was told there is not a large pot for merit aid and we need to fundraise

Last night it was made known that a student who is incredibly wealthy was awarded $$$$
Wealthy as in did not apply for any financial aid, because they knew they did not need any

Wealthy as in their car is worth 2x-3x more than tuition

Wealthy as in their computer and equipment was worth 2x-3x tuition
If Black students matter than Black students must be awarded aid

If this were any other university I would have put them on blast the minute it happened. I have tried to rectify it but have had no luck

guess @PWCSChairman decided he wanted 5 days a week so told @InsideNoVA that’s happening

Not on the agenda tonight... hasn’t talked to other board members but Lateef has always thought he runs this board and doesn’t need any input from those WE ELECTED. insidenova.com/headlines/prin…
It’s sad to see this man think he has so much power and keep BLINDSIDING HIS OWN MEMBERS @LisaforColes @justindavidwilk @jenwallforpwcs @LoreeYWilliams @LillieGJessie43 @Diane4Neabsco did y’all know you had decided to do 5 days a week all in-person-whose in the good ole boy club
Tonight watch to see who knew, who had speeches prepared, who is blindsided

Promise you it will be mostly the women on the Board that Lateef doesn’t feel will agree with him

Because Lateef regularly excludes anyone who doesn’t agree with him from the decision making process
