Yeah, aye.

But I don't like this bill. Just repeal the ban.

A full repeal places no restriction on what is a reverse racism program that some colleges have employed, and I will not support that.

---


Now back to the issue of testing...I think the concerns of LFromNJ are well taken.


Next amendment (to be clear this strikes section 6 entirely):

Quote
III: A publicly funded university shall be defined as one where at least 20% 90% 50% of funding for the university comes from the government.

6. All college admissions officials shall be required to undergo racial bias training which shall last for a period of 2 months, at the end of this training they shall take a racial bias test requiring a score of at least 80% in order to pass. also known as an implicit association test (IAT). The test shall be proctored by the Dean of Admissions. All college admissions officials shall take the test at least 10 times, and shall obtain a score of at least 80% of attempts with the result: "no automatic preference towards white or black people." Those who fail to attain 80% on this test these series of tests shall be given one (1) opportunity to retake the tests within thirty (30) days. Failure to complete the series of tests with a score of at least 80% with the result: "no automatic preference towards white or black people" within this time frame shall result in administrative leave and possible dismissal, to be determined by the University.[/b]

If this is adopted, I will support the bill.

24 hours to object.

What's the point? The current bill is toothless due to the words "sole factor."
