Yes, that's the name of Berkeley's department.
If you're from a minority group in an area, it is _extremely_ unpleasant to hear yourself being talked about as if you're the object of a tactical military operation. "Artillery distance", really.
Agree that if he'd said that women can't do well in the field, that would be much worse.
- dotcoma 3y agoI don’t think the professor was talking about his female students, but rather about the average woman in the Bay Area (but I don’t know for sure, of course). Artillery distance just means 100 miles or something like that. I agree that saying “keep 100 miles from the Bay Area” would have sounded better, but I don’t think it’s that important (again, just how I read it).
