But I doubt the latter contributes in the same way. Not that quick. I'm familiar with a certain department in a certain party school in the Midwest. The faculty in that department is entirely white, with the exception of one Indian, who was hired long ago. There is no reason to believe that the applicant pool contains mostly white people or that the top applicant is invariable white - the job market in the Sciences has been LOUSY the last ten years! But the department is all-white. You'd think it tells something about the atmosphere in that institution, and indeed it's frankly xenophobic.
