Should no longer make studying for the s. A. T. The primary Junior High School activity. Its wasting kids of all backgrounds. Were wasting their time and making them miserable unnecessarily. I should say that i think that theres actually people on both sides of the aisle that agree with that. Charles murray, i think, is also in favor of not using the s. A. T. Anymore.

I think i did. That would be contested, but what was most attractive to me was, it is just about the future of race. Often we look backward in history. It is important, but focusing on the future. Fast forward to today. We have been thinking a lot about the new center, thinking about home again and reinvigorating our core strength, what makes us different. What are we uniquely situated to do . You know, we have relationships with the 11,000 black elected officials in the country. So certainly that is one thing we are situated to do. Thank you, david. Yonhap males of colored. We had the commission in 2005 and six. The joint center and really spearheading that.
