IUPUI Seeks "faculty that 'speaks, acts, and dresses' to connect with minority students"

link

   We were told something vaguely similar by our dean: because we expect Hispanic students to make up a greater percentage of our students in the future, we will be pressured to hire more Hispanic faculty. 

   Imagine that someone at a university argued that, since most of their students are white--or the percentage of white students was expected to increase--they should hire more white faculty. Such a person would be burned at the stake on the quad.

   The left is virtually unconstrained by any epistemic standards. Thus it is willing to make virtually any argument (within certain bounds) to advance its goals. It's the rejection of epistemic standards that leads to the production and publication of such utter bullshit as "feminist glaciology" and dog park rape culture. (Though the latter, of course, was a hoax. Peter Boghossian, incidentally, was censured for having performed the valuable task of clarifying exactly how full of shit leftist academic journals are.)
