An activist group at Stanford University is demanding that white people — as well as men of any race who are not transgender — be forbidden from being appointed as the school’s next president or provost.
“We demand that the next appointment to the position of president and provost of the University break both the legacy of white leadership and cisgender male leadership,” states a document that the group, called the “Who’s Teaching Us Coalition,” released on Tuesday.
Note that the students are demanding that “both” of these leadership legacies be dismantled — which means that neither a cis, black gay man nor a transgender white person would technically be “diverse” enough to qualify.
Among the other demands? “The development of recurring and comprehensive identity and cultural humility training to be instated as a requirement for all faculty in all departments by September 21st, 2017,” a “dedicated, responsive platform for reporting and tracking microaggressions from faculty” and “the hiring of at least 10 additional tenure-track ethnic studies professors and a commitment to the retention of these professors, prioritizing underrepresented groups within the ethnic studies programs.”
Oh, and of course, “adequate staffing and funding to achieve all of the aforementioned demands.”
According to an article in Campus Reform, the group released its demands after a draft of them was leaked by The Stanford Review, the school’s conservative newspaper.
In any case, it’s certainly a good thing that WTU released them sooner rather than later, because the document also demands “that the Administration immediately accept the aforementioned demands and that a statement of acceptance, a timetable of implementation of each demand, and an administrative point person for each demand, be presented to WTU at 3 pm on Friday April, 8th in open forum at the Native American Cultural Center.”
That’s next week, folks!
Welp. I guess they’d better get crackin!
I thought Stanford at least had adults in charge......

This is the kind of pure blind racist Krap that happens when a great world- class university goes rotten. It isn’t new, either. The faculty of one of their most famous professional schools decided to award scholarship monies on racist grounds 40 years ago ( I hope but do not know if they’ve corrected that since). I do know they’ve lost at least one substantial bequest due to their racism. An otherwise amazing university.
So these folks must get into a room together and say “How can we be so obnoxious, annoying, racist, and Gender biased all while claiming to be fair and compassionate”
Bleep Stanford U!
Obama will need a job soon.
Maybe they’d be happy with a nudibranchs-Sea slug, which changes sex.
Given the current state of affairs, I don’t think the office of university president needs anything with more brains than a nudibranchs-Sea slug, anyway.
Universities by-and-large are breeding grounds for fascism and tyranny. Yesterday’s hippies have become tomorrow’s fascists.
They’ve already got a title for their publication: Der Stürmer.
The just need to update the logo and the masthead.
ROFL. Thanks much for great laughing time this morning.
Yesterday I watched some Videos on Youtube about the Mizzou protests last fall.
These Uber Liberal College Campi are being eaten by their own creations!
The Stupid Liberal Professors and Presidents are being accused of Racism!!
(Laughing Out Loud!)
I think farther down in the demand letter (written in non-cursive crayon) they also asked for nap times, juice boxes and participation trophies for all students.
The President must be a cannibal, willing to eat -on campus- uncooperative faculty and students- and not speak English. Previous conviction of any felony would be a “plus”, as well.
Why stop there? They need to be on an illegal alien on the deportation list, also on the sex offender registry, clinically diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and sport no less than 5 body piercings as well as full body tats.
Are these activists a majority? If not, f#ck’em!
There goes the reputation and standing of a Premium Western institution.
Perverts rule? All 12 of them?
Seriously?
Screw these CLOWNS!
Racist, sexist and heterophobics!
