Bias in Postdoc Hiring

[Jonathan Whatley]

meanwhile, Democrats in New York City want to do away with the standardized tests that middle students have to pass in order to be admitted into elite high schools  

apparently these standardized tests are racists (unless you happen to be asian, indian or white)

If tomorrow the College Board announced they'll regularly offer the SAT to adult students, and the Big Three announced they will only admit students with SAT scores in a fairly high percentile, would that be a good thing for education? Well, there's a case that making high school choice dependent on high-stakes standardized tests delivered in middle school isn't great for education either, and there's more to that case than fuzzy liberal egalitarianism.
