Exclusion at UC Berkeley

Oh yes, it's college admission/rejection season.  Some will be happy and some will be disappointed.  Each college has their own admission criteria.  Here's what I observed:  The most liberal college (UC Berkeley) has some of the most exclusionary admission practices.  They all want open borders and opportunity as we are all equal, but they don't want open classroom doors at their university.  They want to shove it in your face how 'special' they are.  Why?

They are prejudiced and bigoted as well, it just shows up in a different form.  Some of the snobbiest people are academics at so-called liberal colleges.  They judge and discriminate based on your academic path.  God forbid if you went to a community college.  You are lower than dirt.  They think they are better than everybody else.

I don't get why uber liberal colleges don't have an open door policy.  After all, they preach that everybody is equal and deserves a chance.  UC Berkeley hosts protests, marches, blah, blah, blah, for equality of all.  If they truly believed that, they would accept all who apply.  They don't.
