'A Failed Medical School': How Racial Preferences, Supposedly Outlawed in California, Have Persisted
These are the young docs who will be treating you or your loved ones in ERs.
Pursuit of immutable characteristic justice above competence in medicine/law enforcement/education/the military/politics kills.

Would be great if a credible person could give a link debunking this.
Emphasis on "credible."
I won't hold my breath.
Read the link I provided...
btw, spoke with our family Docs about this today...typical 'Admissions Board' at a Med School like UCLA's involves around 100 or more people..and the qualities they are looking for are varied...not just MCAT and GPA scores...plus, the Med School is there to find matches for ALL medical needs, including Family Medicine which the most gifted students don't usually seek as a career, due to low pay and prestige, yet is extremely important for low income and underserved sectors of the country. So, having only 8 members voicing opposition to the choices made by UCLA's admissions leader is not an indication of a "Failed" Med School by any means. If Baron were ever part of a Med School admissions board, he would know this.
btw, ask Baron to recall the qualities of our family Docs that I gave him...he knows they're among the top of their graduating class in the country...and they've only gotten better.

I've seen the results. This has been going on across the country. We older doctors all have seen the
drop in quality and the lack of willingness to work or sacrifice for patient care (there are certainly wonderful exceptions, but the majority is a problem).
The Left has put us in a very deep hole with this. It started in the 80's - I've got stories. It has worsened since then.
We all have already begun t suffer the consequences....health systems are going to what I call "McMedicine" order sets because the younger doctors don't know enough to tailor a diagnosis to the patient.
When a committee that I was part of questioned administrators about a proposal that would have limited the ability of good caregiver's to tailor their treatment to an individual in favor of EMR order sets that were "one size fits all for a problem" but allowed some of the bad doctors to more easily know what to order, I was told that it would decrease the number of medical errors.
Well, that has proven to be false as medical errors continue to rise.
It is also driven up the cost of healthcare higher as the EMR's charge more and more as they are asked to do more.
EMR is a challenge for Docs...but it's here to stay...and will become even more prevalent with the
advent of AI...which is starting to be used in our HC system.
Time to stop shoveling sand against the tide and learn how to ride the wave.

CA has been circumventing the prohibition on affirmative action since the mid-90s
Schools use a questionnaire as a proxy for race-based affirmative action but it produces the same result. I wrote an article on it for the Mercury News in 1998 and tactics ebb and flow but the net result is the same.
California used to be the forerunner for the U.S., but it seems that the rest of the U.S. rejects the insanity.
