Feb 25, 2024 ~ Yale, Dartmouth and other woke schools are reluctantly re-instating the SAT test after formerly deciding that the test was 'racist' and anti-DIE because all the races didn't do exactly the same. Their studies found what everyone with a brain already new. That SAT scores are the single best predictor of students’ academic performance. "This is true even after controlling for family income and other demographic variables." The SAT was never biased against certain races. Many colleges still reject it in the name of DIE including all University of California schools. [Affirmative Action, California, College, CRT DIE Wokeness, Fake Racism]
Jan 14, 2024 ~ 'California’s Legal War against Activision Blizzard Shows the Process Is the Punishment' 'Activision Blizzard will pay $54 million — and the state will admit that no investigation, including its own, “has substantiated any allegations that: there has been systemic or widespread sexual harassment at Activision Blizzard.” Nor is there any evidence, California now admits, “that Activision Blizzard senior executives ignored, condoned, or tolerated a culture of systemic, harassment, retaliation, or discrimination; or that Activision Blizzard’s Board of Directors including its Chief Executive Officer, Robert Kotick, acted improperly with regard to the handling of any instances of workplace misconduct.”' Its pure extortion.
