[quote=Anonymous][quote]Okay, but again, why not just take a minute to consider whether whiteness has anything to do with the system of higher education and how we assess merit and prestige? What does it cost you to think about that? Are you really that insulted to be called white? The comment was obnoxious but the point may be valid.[/quote] And why do you assume that the typically very liberal members of AEM haven’t spent much more than a minute pondering this? Many of them/us would be thrilled to have a legitimate discussion about these issues when it isn’t presented in a backhanded manner, dripping with disdain. If it’s not ok to treat race as a flaw, then it’s not ok to treat race as a flaw. For the record, I’m not insulted to be called a woman either, but that doesn’t mean that I want to interact with someone who uses the word as an insult. [/quote]
