Scientists divided over faculty requiring proof of efforts to promote diversity
- HarryHirsch 6y agoThe worst thing is that they cast diversity in terms of gender and race. We had a kid here who went to one of the worst schools in Georgia and still decided she should be a nurse and joined the chemistry program at our regional state college here. Kid failed out after two years because despite several faculty members' best efforts she just wouldn't show up for mandatory classes. She has no chance in life, and it's not because she is a woman and Black.
