What happens when we continue to give underqualified people positions in management and other specialties that require advanced degrees in the name of diversity, equity, and inclusion? What happens when progressives occupy positions in HR nationwide and push this at basically every publicly traded corporation? Should be interesting to watch.
You get the most unqualified VP (2nd most important and powerful job on planet earth), and soon coming to a neighborhood like yours, DIE hires for such unimportant jobs as Air Traffic Controllers, Pilots, MD's/nurses, etc.

We already have physically and mentally inferior police/fire/rescue in our neighborhoods, and recently a DIE hire in the Secret Service that went nuts.

A study at Duke went unpublished because of backlash by leftist student groups when this was assessed about 10 years ago.

"The researchers analyzed data from surveys of more than 1,500 Duke students before college and during the first, second and fourth college years. Blacks and whites initially expressed a similar interest in tougher fields of study such as science and engineering, but 68 percent of blacks ultimately choose humanities and social science majors, compared with less than 55 percent of whites. The research found similar trends for legacy students - those whose parents are alumni."

Other universities had come up with similar results.

Are minority students less motivated or less intelligent? Of course not.

But it is evident that many are less prepared due to lowered standards and affirmative action/DEI policies stubbornly kept in place by progressives at these schools.

At this point however, it certainly looks like some, if not many, students that are mismatched are just herded through to graduation (and employment on their credentials afterwards).

They dont seem to be pressured to change to easier degrees because standards were maintained in the past for STEM degrees.
Years ago an affirmative action admitted student could not keep up with the rigors of the Ivy League university and actually sued them for putting him into a position to struggle, and not get as good an education he would have being at a college more suited for his abilities.
You just cannot make this insanity up.
