Post We can't be reactive again

What we're going to have to do (and what we should have done, going back to the 1980s, IMO), is prepare our children and ourselves for the day when affirmative action will end. Some of the reports covering the decisions indicated that it probably won't go on forever. So, we need to make sure that educational and workplace excellence is hammered into them, including boosting standardized testing scores, such as the SAT. No, you can't legislate morality. But if we're routinely pulling 1200s or above, you can't keep us out of quality higher education institutions.
