She was female in Texas?

As an embryo you mean?

I NEED an impractical EV that corrodes from coughing on it from a guy who also posts Doge memes so they can use that money to put a car in space and buy a social media platform to crash it into the ground harder than any of their space projects.

There are no good billionaires.

I was just reading about a billionaire earlier and the wikipedia article literally takes a paragraph about him being sued by the attorney general for wrongdoing and tries to turn it into a feelgood story.

As a settlement to the lawsuit, he (graciously) agreed to donate millions of dollars to organizations (as long as he got to choose them).

Let us bow down to the greatest altruistic human to ever roam the earth! /s

I am sure they will find a way to still discriminate against Asians. It is kinda cool that Harvard considers you Asian if you have partial Asian ancestry. 21st century one drop rule.

I guarantee you that this is next on the chopping block, but it won't be caused by conservatives.

They are a non-profit which means they aren't paying taxes. There is zero practical difference between the government giving you money and the government not taxing you. Either way you get more and the state gets less. And that is just Harvard by itself, that doesn't include all the tax breaks people get for donating to them so their spoiled brat can get a spot. Basically the taxpayer is subsidizing bribes.

This of course ignores that they openly defied the government when they were asked to clear the whole AA mess up. All it would have taken was them to just show their entrance criteria and put the issue to rest.

Obviously, but I'm saying the only reason it's like that, is the people calling the shots are the ones saying it has to stay that way.

If K-12 isn't enough of an education, we need to extend what counts as public education. Whether that means college or trade schools.

Post secondary education is an investment in our country, not just a way to squeeze money out of 18 year old kids.

So they're falling behind the rest of the Western world for 75% of their student body

Yeah, 25% is what the website says, but that sounds like it includes scholarships. So pretty much every athlete and other scholarships.

They have an estimate tool too

75k parental income and 10k in assets was enough for it to be 15k/year.

That's a lot of money to a family of four with 1 kid in college.

And Harvard doesn't need a penny of it.

Good take. I’d also keep that a secret for life.

They couldn't bring her to a hospital for the delivery? Maybe postpone her sentence for the sake of the child. Do anything humane?

I could see maybe if she was a murderer and a flight risk but it's also possible she's doing time for something stupid like being black on a Friday. Which is why I ask, what's the story with mom?
