St. Mary’s College is Too Rude

St. Mary’s college in Moraga California may lose its accreditation due to incivility.

Translation: They're uh…a little too a… well uh… white.
Accreditors threaten to sanction St. Mary’s if it doesn’t reduce incivility.

MORAGA—Concerned about “the appearance of racism and discrimination” at St. Mary’s College, accreditors have threatened to sanction the school if it does not reduce incivility on campus.

Accreditors were alarmed by the school’s lack of progress on racial issues, the president of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges said in a letter to St. Mary’s leaders made public this week. The commission first asked St. Mary’s to improve in 1990 and re-emphasized its concerns in 2004.

Implicit in this statement is the schools non-compliance with quotas.

The details of the concerns remained a mystery. A scattering of students interviewed Wednesday generally had no adverse experiences to report, although two top campus leaders accepted the commission’s rebuke.

“There is evidence that a significant proportion of the St. Mary’s community does not feel respected and has been subjected to behaviors that are unacceptable,” the report said, recommending that the college hire a consultant to help improve relations.

The report gave no specific instances to support this allegation.

Biology professor Carla Bossard, chairwoman of the college’s Academic Senate, said she had nearly turned down the St. Mary’s job after visiting the campus 17 years ago because of the homogeneity.

“The student body looked like they had been made by cookie cutters,” she said, noting that diversity has improved dramatically since then. “It was frightening.”



The liberals extending the concept of racism to include lack of diversity seems to conflict with their decades long program for low income housing, where the domiciliary almost always constitutes a single ethnic group.

It’s easy to understand then why these same ideological misfits would place the educational caliber of a institution behind the inherently racist notion that a successful school must contain numerous nationalities.

Update: Thanks pparets, I owe you one.
