Black MIT Graduate Explains Why She’s Against Affirmative Action

We've been hearing a lot about Yale lately. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic nominee for vice president, has tried to denigrate his opponent J.D. Vance attending Yale while coming from a poor background. The Ivy League has done a lot to embarrass itself recently, but I respect Vance's path from the Marine Corps to Yale. Walz feels no shame yelling that he's "damn proud" of his military service while lying about seeing combat, but Vance is to be shamed for attending Yale.

I ran across this thread, and though it's a bit long, it's worth reading. Whenever I hear about Yale, I think about President Joe Biden dropping a lawsuit against the school for discriminating against white and Asian applicants in the very first month of his presidency. Then the Supreme Court handed down its ruling on affirmative action against Harvard and progressive heads exploded.

Kiyah Willis, who describes herself in her bio as an "ex-woke leftist," made the case against affirmative action.

I remember back when Al Gore was running for president and promising that everyone would go to college. That's stupid — not everyone is cut out for college, and there are plenty of options.

I posted a supercut of Kamala Harris the other day going on with her spiel about equity. Equality is giving everyone the same thing, without acknowledging that not everyone starts out from the same place. It's true, not everyone starts out at the same place, and it's not helping anyone to admit someone just to have diversity on campus. If you lower standards for admission, you lower the standards of the education students receive or, as Willis said, leave them with anxiety and depression and burnout.

Vance started out with nothing and attended Yale. Not everyone starts out in the right place, but not everyone has the same aptitude, either. Walz bragged that none of the 24 students in his class went to Yale, as if that was an accomplishment.
