Here is a charming picture of a mob of about 100 people DEMANDING that UC Berkeley increase enrollment of minorities, never mind test scores, grades, qualifications, or any other complications.

Many of them are school age children. I wonder if they are missing class? I wonder if they are not being exploited by their politicized teachers? The San Francisco Chronicle, of course, is uninterested in such questions.

Perhaps if they were studying instead of marching with their mouths open, some of these children would eventually earn their way into UC Berkeley, without any special considration.
