White faculty not allowed at University of Washington

[Mick1]

Not new ones, anyway.

36% of their students are caucasian. Perhaps UW should stop admitting caucasian students as well.

One should be angry after reading this.  My reaction – going on 3 generations after after the Civil rights act, the best tool we have for fighting racism is more racism?

Of course, university leaders where unaware of these hiring practices and have instituted corrective and disciplinary actions.

And I have a bridge in Brooklyn for sale.

I’m sure no one will be charged, fined or even loose their job over this.  That said, you can imagine the outrage if the same hiring methodology was used to exclude minorities and hire only white candidates.

Turnabout is, in fact, fair play when it comes to racism.

I was disgusted to read this. It’s as if we have learned nothing about diversity and actual performance. The whole point of inviting diversity in organizations was that we were excluding the best performers from some minorities.

Now, performance not only isn’t desired, it is actively ignored if paying it attention leads to something other than a predetermined outcome.

At some point the national guard will be called out to protect a white student hoping to attend one of these stupid institutions in the face of vocal resistance, and we will have come full circle.
