Girl Glut in Colleges Leads to Discrimination in Admissions?
Though the United States has come a long way in women’s rights in the past 40 years, universities are putting women at a disadvantage once again. While at one time few women were given the opportunity to go to college, now the percentage of women in the applicant pool has sky-rocketed to somewhere between 60 percent and two-thirds. The downside of this is that now admissions officers are valuing male applicants more favorably. Such subtle discrimination deteriorates both educational rights an...

Pahayag ng Pesante-USA hinggil sa Nakatakdang Paghuhukom sa Kaso ni “Nicole” sa Dis. 4
Ngunit wala ito sa bokabularyo ng mga reaksyunaryo lalo na sa mga namununo sa pangkating pasistang US-Arroyo ang pagmamahal sa bayan.. Dahil sa ito ay walang pagsidlan sa kawalanghiyaan at ang tanging layon ay ipagbili ang bayan sa pinakamalaking halaga na kanilang mahuhuthot.
Kitang-kita ito sa kanilang pagtatangol sa Imperyalismong US at sa mga kawal ng Amerika na lumapastangan sa isang Pilipina noong Nobyembre 2005. Sa halip na kampihan at ipagtanggol ang Pilipina, nilait, halos ipinagb...
