A professor should not inflict his politics on his students, Weber said, because those students may not challenge his authority: "It is somewhat too convenient to demonstrate one's courage in taking a stand where the audience and possible opponents are condemned to silence." To which one can only respond: if only! Leave aside such student abuse of the adults in charge as the scourging of Nicholas Christakis at Yale, of Bret Weinstein at Evergreen State College, and of Allison Stanger at Middlebury College, among others.
Conservative Harvard law students, a professor there recently told me, refrain from challenging the regnant dogmas in class, terrified that their remarks may end up on social media and thus jeopardize their careers.
For Harvard's dean to declare that representing a politically unpopular client renders someone unfit to supervise students betrays the university's educational mission, which should be to teach students the preciousness of such cultural legacies as the presumption of innocence.
Truancy rates for black students are often four times as high as for white students.
The academic struggles and alienation of minority students will increase, along with the demand for more diversity bureaucrats, more segregated safe spaces, more victimology courses, more mental health workers, more diverse faculty, more lowered standards, and of course, more diversity student admits.
Due to the diversity imperative, medical schools admit black students with MCAT scores that would be automatically disqualifying if presented by a white or Asian student.
The greatest sin of the social-justice and diversity crusade is to teach students to hate this cultural inheritance.
