THE CHRONICLE OF HIGHER EDUCATION’S DIVERSITY PROBLEM:

As you can see from this link, the Chronicle hosts twenty families of blogs, of which Brainstorm is only one. Brainstorm contains twelve bloggers now that Riley is gone. Now there is no visible right-wing female voice in the entire publication.

Keep in mind that the Chronicle lacks not only ideological diversity. Browse through the blogs and you will see a parade of old, white, liberal faces, all of whom have the dainty air of Elizabeth Warren, our purportedly Cherokee darling from Harvard. I have nothing against old white people, but the Chronicle is far worse than the Republican Party at fostering racial class diversity. At least we have Nikki Haley.

Diversity is the most important thing there is, but it’s not nearly important enough for old white men to surrender their cushy jobs for. It is, however, important enough to deny young white men similar access to those cushy jobs.
