Here’s a question for you- based on the way you think the world should work, if colleges and universities were set up the way you want them to be, would the political opinions of college graduates be exactly the same, statistically, as those of people who never went to college?

Based on the way you think the world should work, do you think universities setup the way you prefer would have racial and ethnic representation in the university perfectly mirror the proportions of those groups to the total population?

Wow, didn’t you just criticize me in a post you made this very day about how I dissemble and refuse to answer straight questions?
Pretty ironic, eh?
Anyway, no, even in my most ideal world I would expect some ethnic groups, such as the Amish, would tend to be under-represented on the faculty through self-selection, and I wouldn’t favor policies to try to hire more solely for the purpose of perfectly balanced diversity.
Now, are you going to answer my question?
