Volume 2, Number 8, August 2000 Educating a Black Elite Thousands of blacks in the US have IQ scores above 130, many more above 120. A war is raging over who will hire them and who will educate them. In the corporate board room where the bottom line rules and fear of litigation lurks around every corner, the need to diversify is overriding. It is a cost of doing business. But nowhere is diversity more alive than on the college campus.

To help, we developed tests capable of exposing violations in exquisite detail.
