They require a "diversity statement" for many positions. Presumably that screens out a lot of ideological diversity. Hard to say whether it has much effect on the diversity I assume you mean, as this place has about the same race/gender/etc composition it would have 30 years ago, IMO. It's certainly easier to be "out" than it was back then, which I'm very happy about. But not in a viewpoint sense, which I'm not so happy about. I kind of miss being able to talk openly with my freaky hard-left, hard-right, and generally nutty colleagues. Everyone's gone quiet.
