Loss of standardized testing puts education in decline

In Las Vegas Review-Journal, columnist Victor Joecks recently argued that higher education is setting itself up for a “slow decline” due to the elimination of standardized testing.

This “widespread trend” in higher ed is largely due to “diversity” efforts and woke ideology, according to Joecks.

“Dropping tests from the equation is an attempt to institute affirmative action by another name,” he writes. “When colleges don’t consider SAT or ACT scores, they generally admit more Black and Hispanic students.”
