The sad part is there will always be discrimination, all attempts to counter discrimination are in themselves discrimination.
Until students/people are judged purely off their merits there will ALWAYS be discrimination.
The truly sad part is it is openly acceptable to discriminate against whole groups of people purely based on statistics of whole groups. If this isn't the definition of stereotyping i don't know what is. Just because one's motivations are sound doesn't mean we should unanimously assume so are there actions.
Judge people for who they are, not where they are from.
- fyi80 13y agoDefine "merits". That is a huge problem in itself, as traditional measures of merit encode cultural discrimination.
- jug6ernaut 13y agoI suppose that depends on what the goal of a school is. If the goal is to teach(which i think everyone can agree is there purpose?), then cultural discrimination, or any discrimination has no place in it education process. In school students are judged by their grades, so should they be in the selection process. Any deviation from this IS discrimination, again assuming the goal is to teach.
- chii 13y agoyou can stop discrimination when there are enough position so that everyone gets to have the same quality education, anywhere (and no one has to miss out).
