Student Argues for Equity-Oriented Solutions that Reevaluate How Hard STEM Classes Are

Twitchy

OK, so this is just a dumb Princeton student writing this in the school paper, but we've gone on and on about Common Core math and "algebra equity": A few years back, Seattle’s public schools adopted a math curriculum that looks at things like “power and oppression” and “resistance.” In 2021, California endeavored to do away with “white supremacy culture” in the mathematics classroom. That same year, Virginia was moving to end all advanced math classes before 11th grade as part of its “equity-focused plan.” All students would take the same math courses for two years before being allowed to advance. USA TODAY did a piece on the "controversial" trend of inclusive instruction.

This Princeton student argues that the university's STEM courses are "inequitable" and that the level of academic vigor be equal.

A Princeton student argues that some courses are unfair because not everyone is equally prepared: “In order to effectively address this disparity, Princeton needs to re-evaluate the difficulty of the STEM introductory courses and implement equity-oriented solutions that directly address the different levels of student preparation. After all, the level of academic rigor at Princeton can only be truly effective if all students are first able to work on a level playing field.”

Different levels of student preparation? Weren't all these kids accepted by the same university? Obviously, they have an aptitude for math. Or maybe not.

Math and science courses are too tough for some students?

The math doesn't get easier the higher up you go … won't those less-prepared students need easier advanced courses?

Math is already being destroyed by equity. Showing your work on a math problem is "whiteness." So is turning in homework on time.
