We demand an acknowledgement that the university exists as a product of colonialistic processes,”

I say that the reification of the societal superstructure -- in so far as a patriarchal landscape can have a societal superstructure -- mandates the teaching that a post-colonial nexus which can only be alleviated by a post-Marxian praxis.

They are actually arguing for so-called ‘historically marginalized groups’ to have hiring preference and consultation, to literally become a twisted aristocracy. Minneapolis is a s***hole

So what else did these four morons pontificate about while avoiding any actual class work? This surely can’t be all, as there is no mention of other marginalized species.

Bet they didn’t much care for this episode of “Turn” where the turdburglar was turned into a British spy to hide his shame.

Sad product of modern academia.

These young idiots and hooligans will generate a nation in which it’s impossible to live.

Hope for their sake they hire a decent staff rather than just tokens...

“It also wants to ban the U of M police department from mentioning race in crime alerts...”
If one of that group is ever a victim they should be banned from giving a description of the perp..

“complicit in reproducing a homogenized notion of diversity.”

What in the h#ll does that mean? By definition diversity is not homogenous. Does it mean that they want diversity of diversity? Why can't they be content to be Americans and enjoy the bounty and opportunity this country still offers (albeit getting smaller by the day).

What does colonialistic processes mean? Do they actually believe that the US colonized the world or do they just have a problem with colonial America and three cornered hats?

But according to its website, “Whose Diversity?” does not want to become an official campus group, because that would force it to be “complicit in reproducing a homogenized notion of diversity.”


I sense a hoax being perpetrated.

The list of changes gives the school two years to have at least two “faculty members of color” in every single department who are “engaging in critical race and ethnic studies scholarship with a social justice emphasis.”

The Physics department will be delighted to learn it has to rehire and change its curricula. Any staff and faculty that puts up with this deserves what it gets.

How about the committee being free to decorate as they deep appropriate the closet they can all crawl back into?

Minnesota? Colonial America?

Minnesota was in deep Injun territory when the Revolutionary War was fought.

Give it back to the Injuns and be done with it.

Be interesting to see how black/queer/womyn studies fits into engineering, mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

This group has too much free time and must be taking some lightweight courses. They need to take some serious math/physical science courses to discover the joys of study and discipline. I would be curious to know how they believe “critical race and ethnic studies” can be part of courses in differential equations or kinetics.

It would be easier if they would recognize their sensitive feelings and sought our surgical procedures to turn themselves into petunias.
