Awards from Louisiana’s free college tuition program known as TOPS have gone disproportionately to white students over the last decade, and on average to students from wealthier families.
Those are among details included in a new report being released Wednesday to the Board of Regents that provides the first in-depth look at the demographics and household incomes of recipients in the tuition aid program, which is among the most generous in the nation.

They clearly need to lower the requirements to make it more culture friendly.
Posted on 12/10/14 at 12:53 pm to Golfer
So are they proposing we lower the standard? Make exceptions?

Now we're going to try to frick over a good program because minority parents aren't doing their fricking job. Fantastic.

aren't mostly black schools easier to get the grades you need for TOPS?
also white students in LA are probably 60% of them and blacks 30% approximately. whites should be getting more

Not all the standards though, just the standards for minorities. We need ANOTHER affirmative action scholarship program.

Do students from wealthier families tend to have higher grades and standardized test scores?
