Clemson Universitys diversity education and training teaches employees that every cultural perspective regarding time is equally valid, so its wrong to expect people to be prompt.
Clemson is spending $26,945 on diversity education and training for its faculty members. [ ]
In one slide, employees are taught that tardiness is acceptable because the concept of time is culturally relative. Thus, every cultures perception of the actual time must be respected since one cultural perspective regarding time is neither more nor less valid than any other.

Hilarious. I respect their “culture of time” but if they are late to a meeting with me they stand outside in the hall.
“First man gets the oyster, second man gets the shell”
That may all be true but if my employer says be on time or else, I will certainly find out what it means to be on time
Reminder: Never hire anyone who graduated from Clemson.
This manure only applies to faculty.
The Army does not make exceptions based on race. And what we call “fashionably late, they call “failure to repair.”
Then Clemson won’t mind if they get their tuition checks a couple weeks “late” ...
Just another reason to hate klempsun. Doh!
You can guarantee it won't apply to white faculty members who show up late.
But I have worked with an incredibly sweet Lady from China who was always early for everything.
No Exceptions.
At the same time I worked with a girl who parents were missionaries and was raised in Uruguay. She could not tell time to save her life!
Drove me absolutely bonkers. A Fifteen minutes break always ranged from 25 to 50 minutes.
Finally, one time when we were really busy I politely suggested she take my watch with her. That break was only twenty minutes. Her best time ever.
So it is cultural.
That part of their culture isn't any good.
Now take a look at China and the Latin American Countries.
Look at what has come out of each over the centuries.
Clemson is actually paying for this absolute crap?
I’m sure Dabo Swinney will keep this in mind for his practices and games. Otherwise, he’s out.
Doesn't matter if the government comes in and takes the oyster from you to give it to the man with the shell in the name of "fairness".
I learned to show up on time when I was a paper boy at age 11. That became reinforced when I had to actually earn a living. I pity the poor snowflakes who haven’t learned that by the end of college.
So finally after all these years C P T is being accepted as culturally operative. Blacks must have a 28 hour day. Do they not see how patronizing this is?
So if whitey is always late for class or just doesn’t go, he fails, but it blackey does the same he graduates with high honors.
Didn’t Hillary say CPT?
Wait. I want to show up half way through my shift and be paid for the whole thing - being on time is culturally relative and all....
But that is what the faculty will be teaching.
Rule 1: if you want to get someone who will work hard for you, hire someone who graduated from night school and worked full time while doing it.
If you want to pay someone for doing nothing and then have them sue you when you tell them to get to work, hire an Ivy League graduate.
I live in Miami. None of the Latinos who I work with show up on time...always at least 15 minutes late...if it is going to be an hour or more late, they may call to advise of that. Then they eat breakfast on the clock. The thirty minute lunch break is at least 45 minutes if they eat at work, an hour plus if they leave to eat. Something changes as it gets closer to time to leave...then they are early....sitting in the lounge for an hour or more before time to leave. Truly amazing to me that this is accepted as the norm.
