Diversity or Perversity?
15th December 2013
It’s not really true that every other course here at the University of Colorado at Boulder is about race, class, and gender. It just seems that way. Such courses are widely advertised on all the campus bulletin boards, like the special course in the sociology department pictured here (click to embiggen). In fact, if you did a scientific survey of the campus bulletin boards, my guess is that four-fifths of the self-made flyers advertising courses for the next semester are for holy trinity (race, class, gender) classes. I haven’t seen one yet for a science course, and three quarters of the student body here are majoring in STEM subjects.
I like that: The holy trinity (race, class, gender).
