Ah, right. An early Gen Xer, my mistake. Still, you were part of a generation that actually benefited from sexist norms and policies. Have you considered resigning your position to make room for a more deserving diverse candidate? After all, it's quite possible that you only obtained your position because a woman was unfairly passed over.
Sarcasm aside, your performative self-flagellation gives me second-hand embarrassment. The DEI activists at your college will never like you, no matter how much you bash young white men.
- beej71 2y agoI also can't speak for DEI everywhere, but at our school, the focus of DEI is entirely on hiring the most qualified person for the job.
- Eddy_Viscosity2 2y agoThat's fantastic and how it should be everywhere. But that's not what DEI is or how it works. I wish that it did, but its not.
- skhunted 2y agoI don’t like the liberal do gooders in academia. The ones who think they are doing something meaningfully good by putting land acknowledgement statements in their syllabus are equally pathetic. Usually there are a few equally qualified applicants for a given position. The goal is to not carry on the tradition of excluding those on the outside because they don’t “fit” with the current in group.
