UCLA Med School

 Hat tip Campus Reform (and Mad Magazine)

The Washington Free Beacon has an alarming report on the UCLA Medical School and its admittance policies under Dean of Admissions, Jennifer Lucero. Once upon a time, the UCLA Medical School was considered one of the most prestigious in the nation, but apparently, that was then.

By the way, this should not be considered as a slap against minority doctors. People like Dr Ben Carson have put that stereotype to rest. That does not let UCLA off the hook for using admittance criteria other than the best-qualified candidates for admission. In my view, they can have their diversity without lowering their standards. Simply lowering standards is the lazy way out. This is especially unacceptable in a medical school. The stakes are too high.
