U.C. President Calls for Dropping SAT-I Requirement

[Bob Schaeffer <bobschaeffer@EARTHLINK.NET>]

   In a keynote speech to be delivered to other college leaders at the
American Council on Education national convention on Sunday, February
18, University of California (UC) President Richard Atkinson will call
for an end to the use of the SAT-I for admission to the UC system. This
development may have profound impacts on the testing debate nationally
-- both symbolic and substantive.
