Watching the Democratic debates really highlights the flaw of degeneracy1 within an organization. To even get on the stage, they all needed to have the same fairly narrow set of views. Not only does this make a debate pretty difficult to have, it also makes it easy to expose how far off the rails things are in this party, with 100% of them raising their hands in wanting to offer free health care to illegal aliens\u2014what citizen could vote for this? If by some inconceivable turn of events any of these contenders got elected, there should be widespread forswearing of citizenship in this county, since this, apparently, would be the way to get free health care.<\/p>\n

Madness.<\/p>\n

In any event, we\u2019re seeing much the same structural flaws in our higher education system, which is likewise ruled by a likewise degenerate pack of \u201cleaders\u201d all believing the same things to the exclusion of all others. What used to be done with a wink and a nod is now out in the open\u2014there\u2019s no need to surreptitiously corrupt the system when everyone is in favor of corrupting the system.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve highlighted some of these \u201copen frauds\u201d before, such as the openly discriminatory hiring of a physics professor\u2014whites need not apply\u2014in Kentucky of all places. Such hiring practices have been going on for a long, long time, particularly with respect to political beliefs. It\u2019s now quite common for a student to go his entire \u201ceducation\u201d without being exposed to a conservative\u2026even though half the country holds such beliefs.<\/p>\n

39% of colleges have n0 Republican professors<\/a><\/p>\n

Fairly consistently, around half the country votes Republican, and professors tend to keep their jobs a long time. You can\u2019t get a result like the above unless there\u2019s a longstanding policy of not hiring Republicans.<\/p>\n

Thing was, that policy was unwritten. But now that the Democrat (more accurately, Leftist) stranglehold over higher education is complete, there\u2019s no need for secrecy anymore.<\/p>\n

And so California, almost unarguably our most converged state in the union, will openly admit and write into policy, political bias in their hiring practices:<\/p>\n

UC imposes political litmus test<\/a><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t even imagine the outrage if a school attempted open political degeneracy like this even 20 years ago\u2026but now it\u2019s hardly a blip on the scholastic or political or civil rights radar. In fact, it was understood, decades ago, that doing this sort of thing was wrong enough to lose your job over it while waiting for the Supreme Court to verify it was against the laws of our country to do this:<\/p>\n

California had its own version of McCarthyism, as it came to be known. The Legislature created a Committee on Un-American Activities and in 1950 enacted the Levering Act, requiring all state employees to sign \u201cloyalty oaths.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

It was specifically aimed at the University of California\u2019s faculty, and 31 tenured professors were fired for refusing to sign it.<\/em><\/p>\n

The state was unconstitutionally imposing \u201ca political test for employment,\u201d as the California State Federation of Teachers said at the time. And after much legal wrangling, the state Supreme Court voted 6-1 in 1967 to declare the Levering Act unconstitutional.<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u2019m against Communism (and racism) in all its forms, but I still respect people can have such views, for what it\u2019s worth. I\u2019ve been forced to sign loyalty oaths as a college professor\u2026but those oaths were what they said they were, and not a forswearing of a set of beliefs.<\/p>\n

The fact remains: forcing faculty to hold political views is illegal. But in a degenerate system, there\u2019s nobody to point out common sense flaws, and so here we go again:<\/p>\n

As part of its \u201ccommitment to diversity and excellence,\u201d UC\u2019s administrators are telling recruiters for faculty positions, as one directive puts it, to take \u201cpro-active steps to seek out candidates committed to diversity, equity and inclusion.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The above sounds harmless enough from a certain point of view I suppose, but I assure the gentle reader things get sinister fast:<\/p>\n

To enforce that dictum, UC also requires applicants for new faculty employment and promotions to submit \u201cdiversity statements\u201d that will be scored \u201cwith rubrics provided by Academic Affairs and require applicants to achieve a scoring cutoff to be considered.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t merely have to nod your head and agree with the pabulum, you have to put in writing that you wholeheartedly believe in this stuff, with determination of your sincerity made by Commissars. A scoring cutoff! If you don\u2019t believe hard enough, no job for you!<\/p>\n

In case it\u2019s still not perfectly clear what\u2019s going on here, the restrictions continue:<\/p>\n

The academic affairs department at UC-Davis says that diversity statements<\/a> from tenure-track faculty applicants should have \u201can accomplished track record\u2026of teaching, research or service activities addressing the needs of African-American, Latino, Chicano, Hispanic and Native American students or communities.\u201d Their statements must \u201cindicate awareness\u201d of those communities and \u201cthe negative consequences of underutilization\u201d and \u201cprovide a clearly articulated vision\u201d of how their work at UC-Davis would advance diversity policies.<\/em><\/p>\n

God (more accurately, The State) have mercy on your soul if you\u2019ve been caught helping human beings in general, instead of focusing on Approved Minority groups which are solely deserving of attention.<\/p>\n

I grant that UC isn\u2019t completely degenerate, and one person speaks up, after making the requisite virtue signals:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a supporter of the original goals of diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, my skepticism toward this policy surprised a number of friends and colleagues,\u201d Flier wrote<\/a> this year in the Chronicle of Higher Education.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cBut it is entirely inappropriate to require diversity statements in the process of appointment and promotion. Such requirements risk introducing a political litmus test into faculty hiring and reviews.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the above is correct, it\u2019s not as clear as it should be. The litmus test has been there for years, the only difference is now the school is so degenerate in its political beliefs that they now can be open in their political bias.<\/p>\n
