What makes this interesting is it’s coming from an evangelical progressive.
Via Law Newz:
In a column in today’s The New York Times, liberal opinion writer Nicholas Kristof essentially admits there is discrimination against conservative ideology on college campuses. The opinion piece is rather eye-opening because for the first time we are hearing from a prominent progressive who admits there is a problem on campuses with conservative intolerance.
“We progressives believe in diversity, and we want women, blacks, Latinos, gays and Muslims at the table — er, so long as they aren’t conservatives … We’re fine with people who don’t look like us, as long as they think like us,” Kristof wrote.
Kristof believes universities are stigmatizing conservatives and undermining “intellectual diversity.” Proof of Mr. Kristof’s point has reared its head frequently in recent months.
