"I am delighted to take on the challenge of this job," Professor Howard said. "Educational excellence and social justice are intimately connected, and the goal of building a more inclusive and diverse university is one to which I am deeply committed. This means, of course, not only changing the demographics of the University, but also its ways of creating knowledge so that, for example, scholarship on race, sexuality, gender, ethnicity and religious difference is put at the center rather than at the margins of our intellectual endeavors."

"...its ways of creating knowledge." I have very little respect for academia these days. Just make your knowledge up to suite your leftist politics, and that is what truth is. Pathetic.

[...ways of creating knowledge...]
