вообще-то собирается
потому что новое начальство это жырные
цветные тетки, получившие степень по women studies
и работающие в области administration of diversity

они по большей части асексуальные, а даже
если и нет, проводят все свое свободное
время, размышляя о сексизме, харрассменте
и микроагрессии

The Parkinson of American academia is Ralph Westfall, a
professor at California Polytechnic University in
Pomona. He computed in 2011 that over the 33 years from
1975 to 2008, the number of full-time faculty in the
California state university system had barely increased at
all: up from 11,614 to 12,019. Over the same period, the
number of administrators had multiplied like little
mushrooms: 3,000 had become 12,183.

Today's New York Times offers one modest
illustration. Over the past 18 months, the Times reports,
90 American colleges and universities have hired "chief
diversity officers." These administrators were hired in
response to the wave of racial incidents that convulsed
campuses like the University of Missouri over the past
year. They are bulking up an already thriving industry. In
March 2016, the National Association of Diversity Officers
in Higher Education held its 10th annual conference in San
Francisco. Attendance set a new record: 370. The
association publishes a journal. It bestows awards of
excellence.

You might ask: What do these administrators do?

As diversity officers proliferate, entire learned
specialties plunge into hiring depressions. In the most
recent academic years, job postings for historians
declined by 8 percent, the third decline in a
row. Cumulatively, new hirings of historians have dropped
45 percent since 2011-2012.

"Diversity" is an easier problem to manage than
"disadvantage." The pages of the diversity officers'
journal reveal much more fascination with increasing
demand for their own employment-via compulsory programs in
"cultural competence" for example-than in the hard work of
mentoring and tutoring. As the New York Times' reporting
confirms, the freshman orientation sessions run in the
name of diversity have a lot more to say about the offense
of addressing fellow students as "you guys" than about the
challenge of teaching students from poor backgrounds how
to make informed choices about financial aid. The
priority-in the Times' marvelously deadpan headline-is to
"cautiously train freshmen against subtle insults."

In the classic movie about politics, The Great McGinty, a
local boss explains to the politician protagonist that the
politician has been thinking all wrong about a new dam
that the state didn’t apparently need. "You think a dam is
something you put a lot of water in. A dam is something
you put a lot of concrete in—and it doesn't matter how
much you put in there's always room for a lot more.” So it
is with our universities. We’ve been thinking of them as
institutions for teaching and learning—and wondering why
we seem to be spending so much without achieving more. But
if you think of them as institutions generating a
perpetual cycle of employment in specialties for which
there would otherwise be no demand at all? Why in that
case, they are succeeding brilliantly.

четверть из них получает больше $100,000 в год

Но от инструмента "я начальник, ты дурак" они
отказываться не собираются, как видно и из твоей
цитаты, и из чего угодно.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

не собираются
но зато мониторят свое и чужое поведение 24/7
на предмет микроагрессий, даже намек на жопохватание
не допуская вообще

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Так для этого и не нужно жопохватания: если
угодно, даже вредно. Чтобы жопохватание отвечало
принципу "я начальник, ты дурак", нужно его
разрешать и запрещать в соответствии с иерархией,
то есть, нарочно стараться, как с любой практикой.

>нужно его
>разрешать и запрещать в соответствии с иерархией,

теперь его просто всем запретили
независимо от иерархии

(Reply to this) (Parent)

то есть "ты начальник, я дурак"
это константа любой иерархической системы,
зато новые иерархические системы исключают
даже намек на личные отношения на кампусе

то есть обсуждать с профессором что-то
помимо непосредственного содержания курса,
даже если студент не девочка, а мальчик, это тоже теперь
нехорошо, потому что нарушает личные
границы, харрассмента

(но если студент девочка, это просто пиздец
до чего непрофессионально, и студентка имеет полное право
пожаловаться на харрассмент, полно таких случаев)

в общем, новая система принципиально отличается
от старой, у ней совершенно другие задачи и другая природа
