Thank you for the ping..

How DARE they? It is a sad statement on what constitues education these days. I am disgusted and incredulous with regard to the double standard on racism.

BCC recommendations


BCC plans to take immediate steps to increase racial and cultural sensitivity at the college. The list of proposals includes:

• Creation of a vice president of Equity and Pluralism position.

• Creation of an Ombudsman position.

• Increased funding for pluralism training and development.

• Tracking data that illuminate places where the college fails to provide excellence to all students.

• A pluralism component in program review and employee evaluations.

• Having professional development days focus on pluralism, especially in the upcoming year, for faculty and staff.

I find it interesting that the college is reacting as if this was a racial slam when in fact it's a political hit done the only way they know how.
