The company that administers one of the two most widely-used U.S. college admissions tests recently announced its first major revisions to its test since 2005. VOA's Pam Dockins looks at how foreign students applying to U.S. colleges could be affected.

The company that administers one of the two most widely-used U.S. college admissions tests recently announced its first major revisions to its test since 2005.  The College Boards' changes to the SAT exam drop infrequently used vocabulary words and the mandatory essay, and add passages referencing U.S. historical documents.

Citrus College students are given a registration appointment date that provides the earliest date they may register for classes. The registration date students receive is based on the student’s priority registration status. Priority registration is given to students who complete orientation, assessment, and create an educational plan. The more classes students take and complete with satisfactory grades, the more priority students will receive.

James Truslow Adams, in his book The Epic of America, which was written in 1931, stated that the American dream is "that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position." (p.214-215)

UCSB student was beaten and raped by three men in Isla Vista, a densely populated community next to campus. A similar attack was reported last month.

 

The gang rape of a UC Santa Barbara student was the second near campus in two months, and university police ramped up patrols in the area in response, authorities said Monday.

Members of the Asian Pacific Coalition from UCLA and USC convened to “end the targeting of people of color, especially the often ignored racism against Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders.” This town hall meeting was organized weeks after both schools received identical copies of racist fliers aimed at the Asian-Pacific Islander community.
