I have read posts concerning diversity, ethnicity, color, gender, age and country of who are professors.
Why has there been not a SINGLE post, discussing the QUALITY of the rosters of University/college professors?
When I’m on the operating table, my concern is for the QUALITY of the surgeon, not giving a damn about his/her color, sex or favorite football team.
If in seat 16B in a jet with one engine out, I hope for the very best pilot, not caring as above.
Why is there NOT a discussion of QUALITY here?

So, what is the racial makeup of the management of the San Jose Mercury?

The author of this piece, Katy Murphy, doesn't look all that 'diverse' herself, either.

h

Shouldn't Katy relinquish her job so that someone with a bit more 'color' and a bit less 'experience' can get some social justice? It's only fair, after all...

So what? They are human beings teaching other human beings. Period.

i never though about the race or sex of my professors or teachers. all i cared about was their knowledge, ability to teach, and respect for all ideas. oh and in the country legally.

Then they rail against “white privilege” in their classrooms. (LOL - I have to share - when I first typed this on my iphone, it came out “assrooms”! Freudian slip.)

Quality by who's measure? Leftist academia?

True enough.

But I'd bet that with a little bit of effort we could find a "two-fer" who would outrank her in the hierarchy of victimhood.

After all, who could possibly object to such a 'diversity hire'? Certainly not a social-justice-loving 'hero of the revolution' and 'champion of diversity' such as Katy Murphy...

Diversity is the excuse liberals use to justify replacing competent white males with incompetent women and minorities. Affirmative action is the excuse used for enrolling unqualified minorities instead of qualified whites.

This article is typical leftist propaganda in order to force whites from the classroom. Don’t be fooled.

As long as liberal whites are the beneficiaries of the “poverty/race industry”, they’ll support it. When whites start losing these positions because of it, they’ll change their tune. Already happening with cops/firemen; whites can’t be hired for many of these jobs anymore.
