#1 Rhetorical question of course, but the funding to finance their college experience came from where ?

#3 To be fair, given the craptastic job inner city schools do, it probably doesn't change the outcome much if the students are in class or not.

#4 Maybe we (Israel as well) need to adopt Hank Morgan's way of organizing the British military to higher education.

#5 The state runs schooling and funds it by extortion and you're surprised by these results?

Just the harvest of fertility redistribution * iron law of subsidy

#6 Schools are generally funded by student head counts and number of days attended. Wanna bet some fraud was committed here?

#7 How many of them will graduate college and, more importantly, what will they do upon such graduation? What will they be qualified to do?

I'm concerned about the money being squandered on all of this but the real tragedy here is high school teaches them absolutely nothing that they can use to get real, productive jobs. High school only wastes their time and now they're being encouraged to waste four more years in college where they will also be taught nothing that they can use to get real, productive jobs.

Reading skills, maths, graduation; none of this matters. Affirmative Action will ensure 'end to end' programme success. What are your questions.

#9 How many of them will graduate college and, more importantly, what will they do upon such graduation?

Where do you think people like Joy Reid and Rochelle GutiƩrrez come from?

#10 How much more evidence is needed to prove affirmative action has been everything the liberals ever dreamed of?

#11 My own opinion as to why schools are funded by state extortion is that it encourages both parents to work.

Anything that gets into students heads while there is purely accidental.
