Pennsylvania State University is hiring a new assistant professor of architecture but is asking applicants to show their commitment to "anti-racism and anti-oppression."
The description for the job states that the position is "focused on architectural materials, construction methods and processes."
While the position is for applicants with a background in architecture, the posting states that the "ideal candidate" will work to "establish a culture of anti-racism and anti-oppression."
"The College of Arts & Architecture is working to establish a culture of anti-racism and anti-oppression that embraces individual identities, fosters a culture of inclusion and promotes equity through curricula, values, standards, ideals, policies and practices," the description states. "The ideal candidate will provide evidence of their experience with, and interest in, contributing to these goals."
Applicants are instructed to explain in their cover letter "how equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging relate to your academic, research, creative activity and/or service experience."
Aaron Terr, a program officer at the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education told Fox News that this can serve as a political litmus test.
"There's what we consider an illiberal inclination to shrink the window of acceptable opinion on these issues, [which] shouldn't be enshrined in the university policy," Terr said. "I do think that this example at Penn State, like many other similar requirements that you know are clearly ideologically motivated, can too easily function as political litmus tests and penalize faculty for effectively holding a dissenting opinion on matters of public concern."

Critical Race Theory = Marxist racism
“If you can prove you killed a white person, your application will be considered. If you can prove you are a mass murderer of white people, then you are hired.”
So, will applicants for diversity jobs be asked to stress building materials, design, and architectural knowledge in their quests for job applicants?
It appears from its actions that Pennsylvania State University has abandoned its academic accreditation in order to transform itself into a coven of racial hatred.

“Critical Race Theory = Marxist racism”
Critical Theory - Working Class
Critical Race Theory - Blacks
Just the kind of crap that is bringing our country down. Has NOTHING to do with designing buildings. Do they want an architect or a clown?
All sports scholarships should be illegal. Critical race theory should be illegal, but gotta hurt the spineless in an area where they care with the first one before you get the second one.
Guess if you designed “white only” toilets, you’re out.
I made multiple six figures by selling computer stuff to Penn State and both of my kids and several of my grands kids graduated from PSU so there is a very special place in my heart for them.
Regardless of the coach/kid scandal, Professor mikey, the eco-freak, and so many other lefty causes fostered by PSU, I've remained a booster, but now, I'm done.
The cancel culture has cancelled me.
