Campus diversity advocates have pulled off their greatest coup to date: They have declared “diversity” to be a freestanding academic discipline, thus injecting their bureaucracy-heavy apparatus into the very heart of the academic enterprise. As of this month, Bentley University, a business-oriented liberal arts school in Waltham, Mass., will offer a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Sciences degree in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
The number of white students allowed to take this course will be capped in order to ensure a greater number of black entrants. And they will absolutely fail to see the irony.
I voted No because seriously what kind of useful job could someone get with a degree like that? Then again "useful" is a trigger word because there are plenty of people making big money in the field of not for profit social justice these days...

My son was majoring in International Relations in college until he found out that it was not much more than a liberal arts degree. Sounds impressive but it's only a stepping stone to other fields which do not have a high employment rate - he switched majors. This degree will be another fail and then the graduates will be complaining about how they can only find work at McDonalds
