More On Berkeley’s “Equity”-Induced Educational Fiasco
Last month I discussed how Berkeley Solves Racial Achievement Gap!. “The solution,” I wrote, quoting a recent proposal that had been approved at a meeting of the Berkeley High School Governance Council,

Paul Gibson, an alternate parent representative on the School Governance Council, said that information presented at council meetings suggests that the science labs were largely classes for white students. He said the decision to consider cutting the labs in order to redirect resources to underperforming students was virtually unanimous.
