There is one type of diversity that university officials are manifestly hostile to: diverse viewpoints critical of the policies which they are pursuing.
"I've tried opposing affirmative action and I'm no longer invited to sit on committees," University of Pennsylvania law school professor Amy Wax said at the Cato Institute on September 15, 2016. Anyone who dissents, as a she did, faces a university "monoculture," and risks "marginalization, even ostracism."
That universities are wedded to the idea is particularly ironic, Wax noted at the Constitution Day conference, because "Few universities have competitive entry in admissions." They don't reject that many applicants to begin with.
Moreover, "Affirmative action has long ceased to be a tie-breaker in Civil Rights," Wax asserts. Indeed, she notes that studies, such as one done at Duke a few years ago, show that blacks often do better in Historically Black Colleges and Universities, particularly in the hard sciences: They tend to drop out of them when in the universities that make the U. S. News top ten lists.
Nevertheless, "Universities don't care if minorities drop out of Physics as long as they stay [in the university system], even in another major," Wax alleges, and she is in a position to know.
They fell by the wayside when the academics started using words like “accepted views/science/opinion” instead of reasoned conclusions supported by untainted, unbiased data.
Diversity is just another word for dilution. This world, gaia, Mother Earth, or the ERF to which most freaks like to refer works because of scale and “PURPOSE.” Each organism, plant, animal etc. fulfills a SPECIFIC purpose and millions and millions of years have settled it down to an entropy that works.
The problem is that Diversity of nature cannot be selectively applied based on political motivation or views. Diversity for its own sake isn’t good, per se; it is dilution - the outcome can be good or bad because it depends on the dilution agent.
The clearest way to decide about diversity in any capacity is the examine the political ideology of the proponent.
I have emailed this site to my local school board representative.
Thank you for sharing it.
In contemporary academia, you’re always welcome to express your opinion - as long as it’s the same as mine (which is to say, as long as you adhere to Marxist dogma).
The whole “system” was hijacked completely by 1970 by Marxists (one way to think). The system was made possible by allowing the massive brainwashing of our children in the mandatory “public schools”-—and plugging them into the Satanic MSM (Hollywood pederasts) who normalize vices and addictions to keep people in the boiling pot (and “happy” and stupid).
Just a matter of time before there is the NWO (Happy Slavery for the masses) of programmed, useful idiots who are unable to have any opinion but the one decreed by the university and programmed for 12 years into their empty heads of mush, along with the echo chamber, MSM which normalizes evil, dysfunctional behaviors and desires in children.
There is no critical thinking in the masses-—because of the system of brainwashing that was completed by the 70s with the evil Jimmy Carter.
There is no Freedom of Press -—we do not get the Truth. We never got the “truth” since Teddy Roosevelt because the monopolies bought up all the news sources in 1910s, etc.
The Truth was banned by our “Justice” system by the 60s (controlled judges by the Rothschild/Carnegie/Ford/Roosevelt foundations-—all textbooks censored by them), so that lies, obscenities and misinformation would be rampant and promoted to corrupt children and addict adults so they were worthless against tyranny and destruction of their home and private property rights. They remain ignorant and brainwashed.
Without Truth, we have no ability for Free Will (choice). That is why Truth was banned by 1970 in our schools and in the public square.
A Justice system which promotes evil and vice will collapse all freedom—the whole culture. We have a Vice System—Justice is banned. Just a matter of time before all the children are totally brainwashed and corrupted by the evil system (culture).
We need to get back to allowing Truth and Freedom of Religion-— the Theology/Ideology which created the Age of Reason and the US Constitution and this Republic—we are NOT a group-think “democracy” which is a mob rule system of idiocy. They banned only Christianity as they promote Atheism, Satanism, Humanism, Materialism, Paganism, Hinduism, islam, Gaia, Mother Earth Worship——and brainwash children with these evil irrational systems of non-think.
Instead of banning Christianity (the most rational religion in history) and demonizing the only group of people who flipped pagan irrational ethics where Slavery, polygamy, misogyny, pederasty, incest, and homosexuality were made into evil, vile, dehumanizing behaviors that corrupted cultures and punished by a true “justice” system-—we now are making them “normal” and natural again
Slavery has to be made “good” because that is the NWO plan so we are just cattle to be culled and herded into little 10 by 5 hovels and kept off the playground (earth) of our masters (the psychopaths).
Sorry for my rant-—but this is so obvious now—that it is becoming a JOKE to those who have a brain left.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH and THOUGHT are fundamental to being human and are FUNDAMENTAL to the CONSTITUTION of the USA. Without Truth though-—we can not “think”——and so the University is only pumping out lies and banning the truth-—for truth is very dangerous....very dangerous to the people who want total control.
LOOK through history-—all truth sayers have been KILLED by their own governments or exiled or poisoned-—Socrates, Jesus, Machiavelli, Solzhenitsyn, Dostoevsky, Sen. McCarthy, Brietbart-—the list is in the tens of millions, BTW——you don’t want this post to go on for a mile.
Diversity, are to liberals like the canned veggies aisle in the supermarket. All shapes and sizes, with different color wrappers, all bright and cheerful, a bewildering array of diversity.
Until you open the cans up and see what is inside and realize that every single one of those seemingly different cans all contain peas.
You see, to liberals, the external appearance of diversity is important, but not nearly as important as the uniformity of though that must reside on the inside.
my predecessor, Dan Flynn, notes that the Left’s idea of diversity looks like the United Nations but thinks like a San Francisco coffee house.
Well said.
