The nefarious emails cited above don't exist. My entire side of the "conversation" with the professors consisted of 2 emails. Nothing else. nada. No verbal or written communication. They went off the deep end because I disagreed with them. And they repeatedly called it "sexual harassment" (per faculty assembly transcripts!) and linked it to my suggestion of the book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26192713.post-24553911130615268582007-03-23T11:03:00.000-06:002007-03-23T11:03:00.000-06:00Too Diverse to be "Diversity"<a href="http://www.reason.com/news/show/36904.html" rel="nofollow">Too Diverse to be "Diversity"</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26192713.post-2326801272801851512007-03-21T09:58:00.000-06:002007-03-21T09:58:00.000-06:00Hi, I'm the librarian in question.There's ...Hi, I'm the librarian in question.<br><br>There's no mystery here at all.

I was told that the University had an OBLIGATION to uphold its values of pro-sexual orientation diversity and anti-"Christian fundamentalism" in choosing a book for the reading experience. I countered by noting that the overarching goal of all universities should not be enforced orthodoxy, but rather openness to opposing sides of all questions. I underlined my point by suggesting four books that challenge this orthodoxy of current "university values." <br><br>That's it.
