Anyone paying attention knows this, so why are college officials pretending otherwise? I Cannot Stress Enough That Grade Point Average is Racially Stratified Too, by @freddiesubstack open.substack.com/pub/freddiedeb… "You’ll be disadvantaging the brilliant but poor Black kid from a low-income school who used the SAT as the way to announce themselves.

Once solidly dynamist, Glenn is now 80% culture warrior. So his reaction is: "In an ideal world, where we could talk about this sort of thing on its own merits and in a generally good-faith manner — like the world we at least thought we lived in back in the ’90s — things would be different. But we don’t live in that world now."
