Re: Not recommended for credential
Posted by Rodeo to Seven and Stomach lady on 5/02/08
Hey Seven, Some of the UC schools can treat their students really badly. I
went to UCLA and had a similar experience. That is kind of how
the UC's operate I think if you are in a North campus type major
like teaching credential or such. The UC's are like their own country. In 2000 or 2002, so many
UCLA students got medals in the Olympics that if they would have
been a country then UCLA would have been like 7th in the world
for medals. UC is a very powerful system. Nobody can censure
them. They know it. You know how California voters voted to
outlaw affirmative action. Well, UC disagrees with that so they
have instituted several back door procedures to continue
affirmative action. For example, they do not require the SAT for
students transferring in from community college. This allows
them to admit many minority students who would never get in
otherwise. Do you think they are letting in many white or asian
students from community college? Also, I have heard that they are one of the school admissions
that give huge admissions points for O Woe Is Me letters. This
is where minority students tell them a sob story for how rough
their childhood was. A student can get more points for a good wa-
wa letter than for a perfect SAT score. And do you think there
is any way to verify that the crap in those letters is even
true. Do you think that they are giving any admissions points
for a white student that writes about how their Mom was a single
mother and their step dad diddled them and their dog died on
their 4th birthday and they were raised by a wolf pack after
being lost in a tragic camping incident and they only survived
by suckling on the teat of the alpha female who took a liking to
them and protected them from being eaten by the rest of the pack
and their foster parents used to burn them with cigarette butts
and not let them eat anything but 1 can of Alpo a day? Admissions points for cry baby letters...my God what has this
country come to? Hey Stomach lady, Don't worry about this person being nasty to you saying you have
bad grammar. I didn't notice anything outrageously bad in
spelling or grammar in your post. This is a chatboard. The
conversations are conversational. We aren't writing term papers.
Have you ever had to transcribe spoken conversation into
writing? It doesn't follow conventional written grammar. It
isn't meant to because the main point is to just get across your
message. Just ignore that post.
