Statement by ACE President Ted Mitchell on Trump Administration Decision to Rescind Guidelines on Race in College Admissions - 03 July 2018
“At a time when our society grows ever more diverse and the need for engagement with individuals from other backgrounds is vitally important, the federal government should not threaten colleges and universities in their efforts to construct inclusive campuses. Today, the Trump administration is sending precisely the wrong message to institutions that are committed to following four decades of Supreme Court precedent.
Higher education is our nation’s preeminent engine of economic and social mobility. The fact that diversity increases educational effectiveness is proven social science. Colleges and universities are working every day to ensure that students are collaborating with their peers from different backgrounds.
This summer marks the 40th anniversary of Bakke v. University of California, the first time that the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the consideration of race in admissions. And as recently as two years ago the Supreme Court reaffirmed that the educational benefit of a diverse student body is a compelling government interest.
Colleges and universities that consider race and ethnicity as one factor in a holistic admissions review are committed to following the law of the land. And make no mistake, this is the law of the land. Today’s announcement does not change that.”
Gbam. You have a guy here by name Stanech who idles around in his village doing nothing and trying to survive on less that $2 a day spouting garbage about affirmative actions he knows nothing about. Shame . Shopkeeper, keep lecturing the pig a*s lickers who spouts garbage without using their medulla.
That's What you need to confront your worthless Thieflicians about not lapping the a*s of some racist pig running America. You are having all kind of woes facing you in Nigeria but a racist pig is what tickles your fancy. Charity begins at home.
stanech: I do understand jim crow but AA was a bad solution.
You are really a sick joke. Tell me if anyone in your compound ever schooled or worked America to be an expert on America. I know why life is tough for you in Nigeria now. I bet you can't even obtain a visa at the Embassy because the Dotard don't want someone that looks like you in America and here you are getting your head stuck in his Orange a*s.
stanech: You are wrong my friend. It is reverse discrimination.
Minorities are smart and will do just fine.
Your family members needs to check you to a psychiatric hospital because your brain is surely failing you. What school did you attend in America and in what City and State ?. You always swallow all the junks coming from the racist pig in the WH. I schooled through my MBA with Private Catholic Schools in Chicago and i know why Affirmative actions are necessary. It's not for Blacks and Hispanics alone, a lots of White women gained from Affirmative actions too but I do not expect a third world ritualistic village loudmouth to know that. Every time you open your mouth about America, you surely shows not your ignorance, you also show why perpetual failure is yours. With all the woes conftonting you in Nigeria, paroding garbage ftom the racist pig is your number one objectives in life. Most successful people i know in nigeria are not fetish about America.
stanech: Trump Officials Reverse Obama’s Policy on Affirmative Action in Schools ]]]l))pl
Best Potus ever
Sicko, do you even know what the hell you are posting?. That's is one of the many reasons we think he's a classic racist in the mode of a Klansman but a clown from a village who knows absolutely nothing about America is cheering him on. Where do you end your lunacy ?. Why don't you Google Jim crow, and Civil Rights era and see what brought up affirmative actions before you begin to display your incurable lunacy. You see why over 90% of Americans of African descent voted against him.
Kophschmerzen: It's obvious this third world cretinous nematode is deranged. Your attempt at trying to sound intelligent feels like a show of circus monkey high on xylazine.
If you had a comparative I.Q test against four meerkats, you'd come fifth.
Hey you wankster, the DNC flipped 48 seats since election night 2016, including seat in deep red Alabama. You are too brain dead to decipher or know.
Plonker, you come across like a chordate lesser mammal who looks like the product of a family of backwoods meth cookers who practice incest with both vigorous enthusiasm and great frequency.
Have mercy on Coluka. It's the dream of Trampy giving them their independence that blinds most of them. You can't blame a guy who have never set his foot on an aircraft trying to be an expert on American politics.
Kophschmerzen: Who's this new doorknob on the block, y'all moorons live thousand miles away and sounding like authority on topics you actually knows nothing about. Even GOP strategists knows the mid term will be a bloodbath for them. The piss-shittty presidency is already hurting the red base and folks are bailing out in thousand. Even prominent GOP like Schmidt and Rick Wilson are roasting the drumpf on national TV on a regular.
You will think the a*s lickers would use their energy to better Nigeria but here they are worshipping a worthless and vile racist who doesn't give a hoot about them . With all the woes bedeviling our dear Nigeria, their focus and attention is on a 72 year old demented foool.
coluka: Yes you will be voting in November but you won't be the only one, millions of other Americans who adore president Trump and love what he is doing for the country will also be voting. The GOP will retain control of both the Senate and the house in November. Like I said earlier, you better not get your hopes high because the higher your hopes are, the bigger your disappointment will be in November
We shall see on November 7 when the republikkkan party loses the House of Representatives.
coluka: 1. 95% of African Americans didn't vote against Trump. You lied, he actually outperformed the last two GOP presidential candidates(Romney and McCain) among African Americans
2. All those who have confessed to crimes in the Mueller probe have confessed to crimes that have nothing to do with the Trump campaign. Manafort's indictment was even for things he did before he joined the Trump campaign.
3. The most recent approval polls show Trump's approval numbers rising among Hispanics and African Americans
Better not get your hopes up for a blue wave in November because you will be bitterly disappointed just like you were in 2016
Obviously, you have your head buried in the Dotard a*s. I will be voting in November and the judgement will be out while you will still be in Nigeria lapping the vile racist behind. You can only scream thousands of miles away because you don't count when it comes to America. I have known of the racist pig since the time of Central Park Five. You can scream all you want, that doesn't erase the hatred majority of Americans have for Trampy.
coluka: Lol, Mr. Lucasbalo with his usual retort (only God knows how many times I've seen you use these exact same lines on nairaland) You're beginning to sound like a broken record I know you have nothing more to offer than insults and calling trump a racist without any shred of evidence. I have learnt to laugh at your hysterics because it's very funny to see you get all worked up over nothing. I just hope you will have enough sense to not hurt yourself when this your latest hysterical crowing about Cohen comes to nothing. TDS is real and not good for your health
Isn't it funny that the people that supports trampy on Nairaland never step their foot on American soil. Director Mueller is still on the job and many have pleaded guilty . People like Gen Flyn, Page Carter and Manafort and others are under indictment. We are talking about America not some Banana republic that corruption and nepotism is the other of the day. He's a vile racist and that's why over 95% of Americans of African descent voted against him. I have documented cases of his racism like Central Park Five, not renting his apartments in Queens NY to Blacks and Hispanics. His Birtherism about Obama and do many others. People like you can foam in the mouth but November midterm election is around and you stay tuned. Meanwhile, tend to Nigeria and all her woes.
coluka: You guys make me laugh so Cohen is now your big hope? Y'all said surely Mueller will take him down, then it was the Steele dossiers, then stormy Daniels then comey, Michael wolff, Lol,some even backed omarosa manigault to take him down. What a bunch of clowns. You better go prepare to get your ass handed you in November and quit dreaming about Trump quitting the WH because even this latest craze will pass and nothing will happen to President Trump
What the heck do you know about America from your Nigerian hideout. A Nigerian lapping up the rear of a vile racist who hates people that looks like you. No wonder Trampy called your country a shiiithole . When it comes to America, guys like you have no say except to come and spout your junk. The two of us you quoted are confirmed Americans. Tend to Nigeria because charity begins at home.
Jokerman: Bro why so much hate Don't let Trump deport you back to Nigeria o.... where you will how back to ur state in Kogi.....
That's How slow you are. I am as an American as Apple pie. I hope you know what that means. Can Buhari deport you in Nigeria ?. That answers your question.
Timbuktuo: Awan Brothers Debbie Wasserman Schulz James Comey Loretta Lynch
Q
You better go for a psychiatric check up with the junks you are posting. No wonder you and your pals are so fetish about America. Can you make sense of the garbage you just posted.
Wipe out corruption and nepotism in Nigeria and she will be a 1st class country equaling America and Western Europe. It's that simple because corruption is killing Nigeria.
Cohen is about to flip on the Dotard. The beginning of the end for the racist Dotard ?. Time will tell. Decent and law abiding Americans want the nightmare to come to an end.
Timbuktuo: Of course, it is visible to the blind and audible to the deaf.
Why Don't you Google Jack Posobiec and know the kind of vile racist and conspiracy theorist you guys are quoting ?. I can definitely see why you are definitely poor in life. Grasping anything to make you look good but ending up a laughing stock. The business must be slow at Oshodi garage today. GOOGLE JACK POSOBIEC AND SEE HOW LOW YOU GUYS CAN GO TO DEFEND AN INDEFENSIBLE GUY THAT THINK OF YOUR KIND AS BABOONS.
Timbuktuo: That is the communist way. Free markets are anathema to them.
Meanwhile, Q is about to go mainstream.
Garage tout, tell me what the heck you know about free market ?. Collecting money from Oshodi garage equals free market. You guys are truly a joke. What's it about America that gets you guys mojo kicking.
Vornic: It has nothing to do with Biafra, I never mentioned Biafra so stop all the incoherent rambling. I just stated my firm belief after observing the current trend of events
Yes current events from Nigeria. That's a surprise that you guys that knows little or nothing about America are experts on American affairs while neglecting your own country with all her woes. Charity begins at home.
So he can give you your Biafra. I want you to get your Biafra as long as it's peaceful but one thing people like you don't understand is that Trump couldn't give a fvck about you or your Biafra. He never mentioned a word about Biafra when he met with Buhari couple months ago. If Trump doesn't care about Blacks and Hispanics in his country, what makes you think he cares about you in a country he called shiiithole with his own mouth.
panafrican: The " racist" is selling weapons to Africa to fight radical islam and he will not come to Africa to tell us we MUST make laws that protect gay and lesbian b.s.
About name calling We Africans also say things you won' t believe about White. Wished you knew what Africans are saying about Eurpeans amd which type of special demeaning pronouns they use when referring to a White. person.
Yes, he will sell weapons to Africa to wipe each other off the planet earth. Africans needs more aides and developments not weapons of mass destruction. I grew up in Chicago knowing the Dotard as a bigot and i have so many instances of his hatred towards people that looks like you and me. Dare me and i will lay everything on the table. My main grouse with Trump is his open racism against Blacks and Brown people. Like I said, there's a reason over 95% percent of African Americans voted against him. We know him better than people like you that admire him from several thousands miles away.
Acepen: ya Am Still Better Than An American Wanna be Black Ass Nigge* What A Hateful Dumbazz.
The joke is on you and you as okrika wearing, yellow eyed punk. Go choke on your N500 data. The fulani herders are marching towards you. Thats your priblem to deal with.

You surely needs psychiatric help. You always post your junk without any proof doing the job of a racist foool you worship. The problem with you is that you are stuck in your village and you are trying to make yourself relevant always ending up making a foool of yourself. Americans know that the poorest States in US are the Southern States like Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tennessee and so many others. You know one thing they have in common, they are all Red States governed by Republicons. In fact, those are States won by Trump. Plus the Appalachian States are all republicans and those are the poorest States. I have been to Appalachia and the poverty I saw there is unimaginable but for a loud mouth from a ritualistic village who have never boarded an airplane in his life to be passing wrong information is appauling. Why don't you show proof or data that supports the junk you are putting out.
Trump is doing great. He is not touring the world to promote gay rights.
How can a Pan Africanist like you support an overt racist that calls Africa a shiiithole?. He's is a vile racist and that's the reason 95% of African Americans voted against him.
panafrican: Abbeybailey AKA Lucasbalo, 1. How did the 5% succeed in having the LGBT flag unfold in the air next to the US flag at federal building such as the federal reserve ? 2. How did the 5% succeed in allowing gays into the military ? 3. How did the 5 % succeed in making the supreme court overrule state referendums that prohibited or limited same sex marriage? 4. How did the 5% succeed in terrorizing employers about discrimination against gays and lesbians? 5. How did the 5% succeed in taking people to court on the ground those people refused to bake a cake for gay marriage? 6. How did the 5% succeed in making some school board impose unisex bathrooms in schools 7. How did the 5% succeed in making a U.S. president threaten to withhold federal funds from school districts that refuse to allow unisex bathrooms in K-12 schools?
You don't understand the Bill of Rights can be interpreted by any supreme court judge in a manner that paves the way to all types of mess. You don't need to amend the constitution to reach a goal in a constitutional republic. Keep in mind America is not a Democracy but a constitutional republic . Had America been a "Democracy " there wouldn't be an electoral college. As a matter of fact, the Founding Fathers were so afraid of Democracy they put into place an electoral college and a powerful supreme court. Last but not least: Georges W. Bush was chosen by the supreme court against Al Gore, not elected by the people.
If you need other sources here they are some short videos 1. Individual freedom versus tyranny of the majority
I don't care about the right wing people you posted. The bottom line is that for an American constitution to change, you need two third of the States, Two third of the House of Representatives and also Two third of the Senate plus the signature of the president. Find something else to worry about. No homosexual flags will be intertwined with American flag. Period.
