Democrats Kill Bill to promote Diversity in Higher Education

  • 6 Comments
  • by: NightShift

From Tuesdays Colorado Springs Gazette

Republican Colorado Springs Sen. Dave Schultheis’ bill to promote intellectual diversity in higher education – i.e., the hiring of more conservatives – died along a party-line vote, with Democrats opposing it in the Senate State, Veterans and Military Affairs Committee.

  1. Don’t get me wrong, I think the bill was crap.  But it is funny how when “diversity” takes on the face of something we aren’t used to considering a “minority,” opposing it all of a sudden seems right…  Very strange…

    Thanks for the diary.  Do you have a link for the article?  I fully admit I probably won’t actually look it up once I close the page…

  2. I would suggest that besides a left bias in academia (notice that it is smart people leaning left, snark snark) cons are far less interested in service to the community and nation if they don’t personally profit.

    Schulteis and his ilk have no shame.

    1. That in my studies, I’ve noticed a lean farther and farther to the left. I think that more balance is needed.

      My first PoliSci teacher told us that he’d teach us about all political systems, whether we agreed with them or not. He had no agenda, and left us with no impression of his personal beliefs. I respect him for that.

      I had an ethics teacher with the same philosophy on teaching, being transparent, acting as only the vessel for the knowledge. I think that if more professors had an objective way of teaching, students would be able to form their own ideas, and bills like Schultheis’ would be unnecessary.
