College Board president pushing 'adversity score' is same man behind controversial Common

Confirmation that the College Board has become a political body whose sole purpose is social engineering, reverse discrimination, and encouraging any means of entering college OTHER than excellent academic performance. Shame!

David Coleman, the architect of Common Core and current president and chief executive of the College Board, has a controversial history with standardized tests and higher learning. Critics claim Common Core, which was designed to establish baseline K-12 curriculum standards but was derided as a power grab from local school boards, should be seen as a cautionary tale. They also suspect Coleman's latest effort, in his current job heading the company behind the SAT test, is an effort to stay relevant amid questions about the fairness of standardized testing.

On Thursday, Coleman, who raked in more than $1.5 million in 2016, made headlines again when it was announced the College Board plans to introduce an "adversity score."

"The fact that the College Board does not want students to know their adversity scores reflects their own discomfort with the concept," he said.
