University of California Regents Postpone Decision on Reinstating SAT/ACT for Admissions Amid Faculty Concerns

The University of California Regents have delayed a decision on whether to reinstate standardized tests like the SAT and ACT for admissions until at least next year. This comes as thousands of faculty members argue that the current test-free policy is contributing to a decline in college readiness among students, while opponents maintain that standardized testing creates barriers for low-income and underrepresented groups.
