Apparently, being a woman on the poli sci job market gave candidates a better chance of getting a tenure track job than co-authoring in APSR, the flagship journal. When academics weren't lying about discrimination ever happening, they were lying about it never sacrificing merit.

“If genuine liberal democracy is to be restored, we must find a way to build robust viewpoint diversity within the academy. This will ensure that partisans of one ideology do not wield concentrated, unchecked power. It is also crucial for truth-seeking.” https://t.co/r9L1lWAN2V

I doubt that Harvard faculty generally oppose explicitly political hiring. What they oppose is the hiring of conservatives. We know that efforts to hire faculty who work on left-wing projects are not generally opposed because they hired so many of them. https://t.co/SxwFDWKJtL

New AAAS data: Total humanities degrees have decreased, but English and History fell dramatically. Many reasons for this. But even if you could show that transforming their fields into progressive political projects contributed to this trend, faculty would still refuse to reform.

69% of Harvard faculty in the arts and sciences identify as liberal (most of the rest identify as moderates). Only 21% of liberal faculty agree that Harvard has a “troubling lack of ideological diversity among its faculty.” https://t.co/WbquGKnhd6 6.8K views · 142 likes · 28 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

@BrandonWarmke Defunding and withdrawing tax exemptions seem to be the only leverage the public has. Drastic measures, but maybe necessary. And fair: universities should be free to go on being indoctrination centers, but not on the public's dime. 1.2K views · 12 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Some academics claim that universities can reform themselves. They’re badly mistaken. Here is the argument, from my Civil Discourse Project debate at MIT last month. Thanks to The Freeman for publishing it. https://t.co/JWoJqZFv8y
