I’m not inclined to hire a graduate from one of America’s elite universities. That marks a change. A decade ago I relished the opportunity to employ talented graduates of Princeton, Yale, Harvard and the rest. Today? Not so much.

The supposed best and brightest spend their time navel-gazing and weeping because someone said or did something that triggers their inner screaming brat.
A legion of wimps and crybabies...
Ivy League schools were mostly christian seminaries that required Greek and latin, reading and writing as an entrance requirement. They have gone a Long way down the ignorance hole.
LOL, he must have been talking about Alger Hiss and the UN!
Thanks for clearing that up, bert.
I live in the vicinity of several “super zips” and have family/friends of liberal/progressive persuasions who are residents therein, all fans of open borders. I’ve noted here and elsewhere that they live several zips away from those who come to those elite parishes only to mow their lawns and clean their toilets.
Haverford is Ivy? Since when?
“Bad boys rape our young girls but Violet gives willing” .. is an old memory aid they teach in basic electronic to remember the colour code for resistors
"so why should we let someone teach social science that we know to be wrong in our social science courses?"
Because it is possible that you are wrong.
Science is not mathematics. Newtonian physics was wrong. And social science is a further three rungs down in certainty from science.
Your level of certainty and arrogance about what can be said, and probably thought, smacks of religion, and not science. This is a political religion that permeates academia at the moment. And which I am fairly sure you will swear does not infect you, while the rest of us can see the symptoms quite plainly.
Only religions ban heretics from speaking because of the wrong-think they might cause. Real science loves a good heretic. In fact, honestly, the entire goal of science is to be a heretic. To have an idea that no other person ever had. Science is the pretty much the antithesis of your thought-police approach.
And most of academia used to be the antithesis of your thought police approach as well, until the religion of leftism took it over, with the direct help of people like you.
The book you describe seems vaguely like Clifford Simak’s City, or derivative of it.
No, don’t know any native PhDs, just Indian and/or from India. Dunning-Kruger is a big part of that culture.
Millennials are the best and brightness. Just ask them....

#5 I had a co-worker back in 2004 who was absolutely amazed I did my own laundry and did not take my clothes to the dry cleaner like she did. BTW she was really full of herself.
