Universities: Terrified that SAT math questions ("Is this angle greater than 90 degrees?") might harbor bias, so they're forever debating ditching standardized tests. Also universities: How about we let your friends rate you and turn admissions into a Black Mirror episode?

Two years ago, I moved to Tulsa to become the inaugural dean of a new honors college. Then President @bradrcarson convinced me to leave my endowed position at Carolina to build the university’s sixth college. I am so proud of all we accomplished over the last two years 🧵(1/21).
