Delaware’s Diversity Mania Rages On

A blogger who is a University of Delaware grad writes here about the latest manifestations of the school’s diversity mania. It has recently established a new Center for the Study of Diversity (how much skepticism do you think there will be as to the benefits of it?), and student course evaluations now include a question asking what lawyers would consider a leading question: Were you prejudged by the professor based on your race, ethnicity or gender?

Well, Mr. Leef, I'm sure Delaware's Center for the Study of Diversity will subject the concept of diversity to severe and rigorous scrutiny. Paul Tancredo, Steve Sailer and Charles Murray will be tapped as visiting scholars, forthwith.

In actuality, of course, the very opposite will be true. It is the iron law of academia that the more racially diverse a department, the more intellectually monolithic it will be. Suffice it to say the Delaware center will prove that law in spades.
