I urge you to take immediate action against SCA-5. SCA-5 will lower the
ranking of the UCs and Cal States. We need to put merit and academic
performance as a priority. Have students study more and obtain good grades
and knowledge, thus ensuring their admission. That way, we would have better
students and a wiser populace, as opposed to those admitted through what
amounts to state-sponsored racial discrimination for a chosen few who spend
their lives stigmatized as admitted because of t... 阅读全帖 |

Why is imposed "diversity" a good thing?
It seems that many just accept that racial diversity somehow improves things
and is an axiomatic "good" in itself – even if it has to be imposed from
above. I've never seen an evidence of it. I can look around the world and at
the history of the last 113 years and see plenty of examples where "
diversity" has been anything but good or desirable.

据美国《星岛日报》报道，上月底美国国会审议高技术绿卡(STEM)提案，结果在西岸华

此事随即在留学生社群引起一片骂声，美国当地华人社区也多不认同赵美心否决此案的
理由。
这条由共和党提出的议案主要是为科学、科技、工程及数学(Science, Technology

受十多年的移民排期之苦，但是代价是以5万个绿卡抽签名额(Diversity Visa Program
