All in the name of a more colorblind society?

Tell you what, the thing that holds most black Americans back is the pressure from within that community to stick with the script. Step off the plantation, and they come after you with bone saws.

Yeah, I am glad I am no longer in academia. It is worse in the lower ranked universities believe it or not!

Colorblind my derriere!

All in the name of finding anyone of color who can lead the University to the bottom. They wanted a fully-intersectional person (black, gay, tranny with children they have sacrificed to the gods of gender reassignment surgery)...but they will take what they can get.

Amazing that Harvard can't recognize its own bigotry of low expectations.

It all started with girls being allowed into the boy scouts. Paint any other pictures as pretty as you want but the bottom line is when true men caved to the hands on their hips demanding women, all the fkng freaks and lowlifes took notice...

“the thing that holds most black Americans back is the pressure from within that community to stick with the script.”

I watched a couple hours of Turning Point’s AMFEST last night. The excellent outreach they have for the black community gives me hope.

...associate dean of diversity, inclusion, and belonging.

Surprisingly, it's not meant for everyone.

“I would rather be governed by the first 2,000 people in the Boston telephone directory than by the 2,000 people on the faculty of Harvard University.”

William F. Buckley, Jr.

And he said that decades ago...

"It all started with girls being allowed into the boy scouts."

Smoking, the government telling people when and where they can smoke tobacco.. That's when it all began...

She’s a communist Jim.

A rather hard-core one, using the system and other communists to conduct purges.

If you must destroy something, put a black female steeped in racial grievance in charge.

An older SF novel.

“In the near future, on America’s campuses, professors hawk their courses, dozens of political groups compete in violence and computer-dating means having sex with a computer. It may not be all grind, but isn’t it fun and games - as one senior finds out when he kidnaps his favorite professor - and kills him for his knowledge.

You are looking at the college of tomorrow where yesterday’s radicals are the Establishment. And tomorrow’s students invent the ultimate revolution.

Harvard leads U.S. colleges that received $1 billion from China Trade tensions between Beijing and Washington have been building for years, leading the Trump administration to label the Asian nation “a threat to the world.” Yet the tally of gifts and contracts from China to U.S. universities since the start of 2013 is approaching $1 billion.

Behind a paywall, but for once the headline says it all.
