Earlier this month I wrote about the University of Texas which was laying off around 60 employees in order to belatedly comply with a state law prohibiting DEI. I say belatedly because the law in question took effect at the beginning of the year but it seems UT’s first reaction wasn’t to get rid of […]
We missed the first rule of corruption: Follow the money. Yesterday’s confessional from longstanding NPR insider Uri Berliner, and especially my response to it, largely overlooked an important component of the story about NPR’s corruption. And as luck would have it, we can also observe a related anniversary about it. Almost exactly one year ago, […]
Randall Kennedy is the Michael R. Klein Professor at Harvard Law School. He has written a series of controversial books about race and racism and is clearly on the left, but is also considered a strong voice for free speech (a combination that used to be more common than it is today). This week, Kennedy […]
You may have heard that billionaire Mark Cuban recently claimed he knows DEI is effective because he can see it reflected in the bottom line. In other words, his companies which implement DEI have better earnings as a result. There’s actually a well known series of studies which claim to have demonstrated this relationship: Four […]
Last year Texas legislators passed a bill aimed at removing DEI staff and groups from state-funded universities in Texas. After hours of contentious debate, the Texas Senate approved a bill Wednesday that would largely restrict how the state’s public universities can promote equitable access to higher education and cultivate diversity among students, faculty and staff.

Since Biden took office, the federal government has doled out huge sums to prop up […]

The public comment letter said the rule […]
Last week the Washington state Supreme Court ruled that people wanting to become lawyers no longer have to pass the Bar Exam. The traditional Bar Exam will now be just one of three options in the state for those who seek to become licensed. The Supreme Court of Washington on Friday approved several new ways […]
You know, nursing is a vocation, and only certain people are called to be nurses. Some might be the mothering, smothering kind of individual in their own right, while others might be well-organized and slightly less empathetic. But it doesn’t mean they were meant to be nurses or particularly good ones. Nursing school is […]
“When you have a broken culture,” Shaun Maguire laments, “you’re just going to keep creating broken products. The Google Gemini images merely confirmed what I already knew.” Maguire is no disinterested observer, either. He spent three years as an investment partner at Google Ventures, until its relentless DEI authoritarianism forced him to look elsewhere for […]
