I have written numerous columns about Harvard in the past two years. Once known as a prestigious Ivy League institution, it has now fallen into the trap of being overly politically correct. From biased and unfair admission standards to a staff of professors and administrators who push leftist ideologies, Harvard has become a place of indoctrination. In my humble opinion, it is best to avoid the school as it can no longer justify its dangerous societal positions or exorbitant tuition fees.
Having been condemned for the practice in the past, Harvard is once again practicing segregation by offering multiple graduation ceremonies based on race.
In a Fox News Interview, Congressman Burgess Owens (R-Utah) stated his mind concerning the current system of education.
Last week, Randall L. Kennedy, the Michael R. Klein Professor at Harvard Law School, argued in The Harvard Crimson campus newspaper that:
However, even when a leftist professor points out the absurdities of the woke administration, nothing seems to change. A prime example is that the university plans once again to move ahead with its segregated commencement ceremonies called “affinity celebrations.”
National Review reported:
Notably absent from the list of ceremonies is a White student Celebration, and it needs to be noted that until the school was called out by Manhattan Institute’s Christopher Rufo, no Jewish student Celebration was scheduled either.
Divinity School student Shabbos Kestenbaum believes that “Harvard DEI is simply out of control.” He went on to explain that Harvard not only fails to recognize “the harmful ways in which Harvard DEI has contributed to issues such as campus antisemitism, but the university only further marginalizes individuals into groups of race, ethnicity, and religion.”
Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.), chairwoman of the Education and Workforce Committee, agreed:
In an interview with the Washington Stand, Joseph Backholm, Family Research Council’s senior fellow for Biblical Worldview and Strategic Engagement stated:
Support Canada Free Press
Harvard is driving wedges between students based only on racial ethnicity. That division fails to recognize the complexity of each individual and instead uses the shallowest differences such as skin color for segregation purposes.
Labeling these as affinity celebrations is a disguise for destroying harmony with pleasant sounding language. Harvard has been reduced from an institution of higher learning to a sad landfill of woke leftist waste.
