This is news?

Not for those of us who work in higher education. Berkely announced that was how it would read undergraduate applications - "holistically" and encouraged minority students to write about all the struggles they faced to get to the point where they applied.

Affirmative Action Making Comeback

Just a horse of a different color... and another sign of the further decline of higher education. I'm inclined to agree with Matt Damon's character from Good Will Hunting - I could have gotten the exact same education I spent... way too much on for $1.50 in late fees from the public library.

The piece of paper isn't worth squat. And what a hypocrite I am considering I won't quit my job in protest.

Who knows.. I might.
