Today, the Ivy League is at the forefront of medical education and research, and deservedly so. However, it has yet to acknowledge, let alone address, the fact that its medical school enrollment is reaching a crisis. One can write a book on this subject. But let me try to sum it up as follows:
Harvard Medical School, for example, is quite openly proud of its diverse student body in terms of skin color and ethnicity. However, truth be told, its diversity is only skin-deep, no pun intended. When it comes to ideologies, this Ivy League medical school overwhelmingly prefers liberals to conservatives, other things being equal. As a result, pro-life applicants are likely denied an access to medical education at Harvard. That is not right. That is not fair. Ideological bias should have no place in medical education because it makes no medical sense. Progressives do not own progress. No one does. It is regressive to pretend otherwise.Author: renqiulan
