这个黑牛GPA3.6，UM的平均录取线3.85，没被录取，结果彻底怒了，发动示威，提告法
院。
Brooke Kimbrough, an 17-year-old high school senior, always dreamed of
attending the University of Michigan.
But when she received her rejection letter in the mail this spring,
Kimbrough took an unusual step: she held a news conference and rally at the
campus to protest the decision.
"I fervently believe in black equality," Kimbrough explained in a statement.
"I believe that our public university system should provide a pathway for
opportunity for underrepresented minority communities. I am appealing my
application to the University of Michigan not only for myself, but for other
black and minority students who deserve the equal opportunity to go to the
best public university in the nation."
Kimbrough, a University Preparatory Academy student in Detroit, had a 3.6
GPA and scored a 23 out of 36 on the ACT standardized test. Although her
scores are considered slightly below average – students in the fall 2013
class earned an average 3.85 GPA and a 29-33 ACT score – Kimbrough is a
well-rounded student having been a member of University Prep’s award-
winning debate team, president of the school’s National Honor Society
chapter, and a participant in a youth leadership program at Alternatives for
Girls, a Detroit nonprofit. |
