    We'll have to disagree because there are a bunch of breaks and things that absolutely are built into the way all schools operate that are purely because of Christianity.

    You are broadening the subject to make your point.
    The teachers MAY NOT FACILITATE ANY RELIGION
    which is what they are doing.
    Who gets holidays or says Merry Christmas has nothing to do with it.
    There are rules and they are being broken.

    Ok lol

    I'm not talking about built in cultural things in an institution.

    I'm talking about protests, laying on the floor in people's way, and schedules interrupted and changed for one religion.

    So really not what I was talking about.[/QUOTE]

    Nope. Try again. They are not facilitating any religion above any others. That is the part you are making up. They are merely giving Muslims the same leeway they give the other mainstream religions. All the yelling and whining won't change that simple fact.

    BTW - who gets off for what religious holidays absolutely matters as that is facilitating a specific religion...

    The College Board reportedly plans to assign an “adversity score” to each student who takes the SAT, providing information on student's social and economic background.

    The data point, which would be calculated using more than a dozen factors, comes as college admissions boards face scrutiny for their selection processes, The Wall Street Journal reports.

    Among the categories included in the calculation are the crime rate in a student’s neighborhood, their family’s median income and the rigor of their school’s curriculum, according to the Journal.

    Students’ scores can range from 1 to 100, with 50 being average, above 50 representing an element of adversity and anything below 50 representing a degree of privilege, the newspaper reported.


    The students themselves won’t know what scores they get, but colleges will see the information.

    “There are a number of amazing students who may have scored less [on the SAT] but have accomplished more,” David Coleman, chief executive of the College Board, told the Journal. “We can’t sit on our hands and ignore the disparities of wealth reflected in the SAT.”

    Wait, test taking isn't the only determining factor in a persons success? Well I'll be damned....

    Seems awfully heterophobic to me. Not cool treating her badly for how she was born.

    So what is the graduation rate of those artificially promoted? If you take someone like me and say but he is defective so we have to promote him to MotoGP are you not guaranteeing my failure? Would it not make more sense to help the person get into a school best suited to them at that time so they can improve and prosper?

    How much does mental adversity weigh in on the score I wonder?
