[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Malcolm X was right, guilt ridden UMC white libs are the worst. Always "whitesplaining" to us black "folk" cause it makes them "feels" good to be the white knight. As a black person reading some of these posts it's really something to behold. [/quote]

Do you think racism exists in the US today?

If so, do you think it should be addressed? How? 
[/quote]

Probably not by sending a bunch of emails and surveys to disaffected students again and again the way Michigan does.[/quote]

You’re minimizing the work they’ve done over the last decade, including better representation in faculty. 
[/quote]

You mean they've mau-maued the faculty into regularly hiring less qualified candidates and made everyone sign terroristic "diversity statements". Yeah good job.[/quote]
Do you know what terrorism means? It takes like 10 minutes for a faculty applicant to write how they’ve mentored a student of color before. It’s not an unreasonable demand. [/quote]

Harvard and MIT thought it was an unreasonable demand, and ended the practice.[/quote]
This is an incorrect read. They thought it was compelled speech.

An institution could force all of its faculty to walk for 5 minutes. That is not an unreasonable demand, but it is one that is unnecessary perhaps. Know what unreasonable means.[/quote]

Reasonable compelled speech? Did you go to law school to come up with that distinction?[/quote]
You’re genuinely obnoxious. If someone makes you write an essay,do you cry that it’s unreasonable. Grow tf up.[/quote]

Deliberately misrepresenting this situation. It’s about forcing someone to take a preferred political position - aka compelled speech - within that essay.

But of course you understand that.[/quote]
