    OP couldn't get into Berkeley if he was a black Asian lesbian trans woman with disability so not really sure why he's knocking their affirmative action policies

    You're pretty much wrong. Plenty of my contemporaries went to Berkely. Oh, but nice deflection, btw. I wouldn't want to have stood up for those snowflakes either.

    Climate.

    California has the nice cool Pacific current that moderates temperature in the Summer and Winter.
    Huge reason it's the most populous State. That coastline.

    Most of their STEM programs are exceptional and nearly impossible to get into. It's one of the most prestigious colleges academically obviously socially is a different question. The main thing I was noting is that even with affirmative action a C student or someone of Spurtaculars brainpower is not going there. There's this notion that affirmative action gets C students into Princeton among some people or at least it seems that way when they talk about it

    Maybe you were too inferior to get into Berkeley; but projecting on to me won't make it better for you, bro.

    They can say nothing to defend this kind of behavior so they attack you. The professor should hand out the exams, say nothing - gather the tests after the class time is done and give them their deserved F.

    The video doesnt particularly support its premise that the university is advocating or supporting or even cultivating that mindset; quite the contrary, the teacher shut them down and continued the test. not hard to cherry pick a group of idiots and present them as representative of a bigger group, if it were as widespread as she claims she'd have better evidence.

    Where do you see that the teacher shut them down - he's going outside to talk with them when they should be inside taking the test with the rest of the class? I agree that this blond girl should not have super imposed that Berkeley is teaching this stuff - but if these students have a problem they should have seen him DURING office hours BEFORE the exam - not trying to hijack the class during the stated exam time. The exam was probably set a long time ago and whatever was stated in the syllabus - usually just religious holiday exemption should be followed. And it's inconceivable to me that anybody would be trying a stunt like this but it isn't the first time/video is it? See what happened at Evergreen State.
