The Diversity Delusion

If you are firmly liberal, then you'll definitely want to skip this one because you WILL be triggered. Hard.

If, on the other hand, you are a moderate or conservative person, this book is a must read. It is eye-opening to learn what is currently going on in colleges in regards to ideas and concepts that to anybody older than about 35 would be clearly nonsensical.

I like to read items from both sides of the political spectrum in order to remain informed about how both sides are thinking. My suspicion is that most of America (probably the world) is largely politically moderate but completely disconnected. Based on this book and many other things I've read over the past 2-3 years, parents are generally paying big money to send their children to college/university based on the old wisdom that those institutions teach useful information and skills to provide what is needed for careers going forward. That is probably still true in the hard sciences and professional-related tracts. But the majority of university tracts don't fall in these areas and generally are focused on hard-left indoctrination instead of what most would consider to be a traditional “liberal” education. And the thought that there are balanced voices in the college ranks, some of whom lean “conservative” is completely wrong. 95% of professors and administrators are hard left liberal. And the 5% that aren't are DEEPLY hidden for fear of losing their jobs and are effectively silenced from sharing conservative thought.
