University calls the amount of white people on campus a ‘failure,’ asks for ideas on how to have fewer

- WWU's marketing department asks "How do we make sure that in future years 'we are not as white as we are today?'"
- This question has been posed several times already by University President Bruce Shepard.
- President Shepard equates a "white" student body and faculty to "failure."

A school-wide questionnaire at Western Washington University (WWU) asked the community “How do we make sure that in future years ‘we are not as white as we are today?’”
The question, released through the communications and marketing department's daily newsletter Western Today, comes on the heels of admonishments given in multiple convocation addresses by WWU President Bruce Shepard for the university’s “failure” to be less white.
“Every year, from this stage and at this time, you have heard me say that, if in decades ahead, we are as white as we are today, we will have failed as university,” Shepard said in the 2012 speech.
“In the decades ahead, should we be as white as we are today, we will be relentlessly driven toward mediocrity; or, become a sad shadow of our current self,” he wrote.

Exactly what bugs me about the word "diversity." This is really what it means.
-
Lol @ WWU, a U smack dab in the middle of an all white sleepy mountain town on the Canadian border, complaining about being too white.
Fail.

The university cant do anything except lower their standards and that helps no one.
-
Why do white people now feel inadequate for being white? ???

They'll do it anyway. Just like at Berkeley, et al. And it doesn't help, as you said, because they end up failing out anyway.

Only the mentally ill uber liberals despise themselves.
I love myself, my white culture and white country.

Yes I quite agree. Uber liberals is a good way to describe these cretins.

Thats exactly what happens. They drop out because they cant compete. Instead they should have gone to a community college to get a taste of university.

haha, watch "Soul man".

White people, by and large, don't. Mush-brained white liberal Democrats, feeling they must atone for their past racism (while exhibiting, at times, present racism), do.

Once again another epic post even my leaning leftish wife is like "whaaat?"...
It's a disease simply because it goes against everything that make sense to anyone who rolls their sleeve and work for what they want and have.
It's an utopia; falling apart exponentially.

Liberal procreation

Liberals are anti-white people. This asshole is as racist as it gets, but of course he will never be called out on it, because it is not only perfectly acceptable but even 'morally right' to be racist against white people in the minds of the liberal media.

I never needed convincing. These people are freaking nut cases.

The word "Diversity" has truly lost its meaning. The current definition of "Diversity" almost solely focuses on race/ethnicity and/or religion. However, the word Diversity should be all encompassing and include many things that make us different. Diversity extends to other issues besides race/ethnicity and/or religion. What about people who are physically handicapped, deaf, or blind? These are all issues that make people diverse. There is a term titled, "Invisible Diversity." It means Diversity issues that make us different that are not readily apparent such as people with learning disabilities, mental illness, or poor people (you cannot always tell when someone is poor or mentally ill or has a learning disability). Hence the term "Invisible."
Why isn't the university calling for more deaf or blind people? Why isn't the university calling for more students in wheelchairs?
I have no issue with a university wanting to become more diversified. I definitely think that diversity enriches education. Diverse people bring their own unique, lived experience, which is important for growth and learning. However, lets include the MANY different things that make us different, and not just race/ethnicity and/or religion.

Asian dominate particular areas of study at many major universities yet you never hear a word about there being to many Asians.

A tanning bed in every dorm room. In 4 weeks you'd have a campus full of Roy Scheider lookalikes. In 2 years you could corner the leather market.
Next case.

Ideology.

You think that's bad, a BBC drama show set in rural 1800s England has been criticised for having no non whites in it!! But there weren't any non whites in rural 1800s England!! Its only being factual!!!
