I have news for Coulter: Asian Americans have a significant history of anti-racism work, and our young people are building a #ModelMinorityMutiny. We will not fight other POC for your fun. We are #NotYourWedge.

OK lovelies, I'm done for today! See you all later today when I come back with today's Storify of #NotYourWedge!
And then you don't end up having to layoff all your humanities profs bc you weren't able to see what students wanted to study. #NotYourWedge
We haven't talked abt this, but one reason for holistic review is just so you don't end up w 95% students wanting premed track #NotYourWedge
It will virtually eliminate any capacity to think about student life, but also just to balance admission of diff majors. #NotYourWedge

SATs strongly correlate w student SES, family income. They only weakly correlate with student performance or academic merit. #NotYourWedge
Remember, y'all: @AAAJ_LA is moderating today's #NotYourWedge townhall. Follow them!
