You are quoting a paper described by the author as "twisted" to make the case against diversity while trying to argue against diversity.
> Putnam denied allegations he was arguing against diversity in society and contended that his paper had been "twisted" to make a case against race-based admissions to universities. He asserted that his "extensive research and experience confirm the substantial benefits of diversity, including racial and ethnic diversity, to our society." [1]

- shadilay 5y agoThe paper is comedy gold. The data says one thing but when you read his conclusion one of the reasons he gives to ignore the data is 'ethnic restaurants'. Hilarious. This is not how you're supposed to do science. Data is supposed to inform the conclusion and not the other way around.
