![]() ![]() From The College Fix, "San Fran State hires 'anti-racist' engineering dean": San Francisco State University appointed a new dean to lead the College of Science & Engineering "to create an environment of multiculturalism, inclusiveness and equity," according to an announcement. The college tasked Harris with "institutionalizing an anti-racist multicultural community within the college" and "implementing the goals and objectives of the Strategic Action Plan developed by the CoSE Anti-Racism Task Force and completed in August 2022."According to San Francisco State University, "The inspiration for the position began in 2020 when CoSE issued a statement of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement after the murder of George Floyd and others, such as Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery." SFSU's announcement continues: Among the overarching goals of the Strategic Action Plan is the goal of assessing the racial climate that CoSE students, faculty and staff experience in their academic endeavors. Although eradicating racism is a worthy goal, Harris knows it's a lofty one and she points out that this work is very complex.It's nice of them to use the proper "DIE" acronym rather than "DEI." Building partnerships between CoSE and other colleges throughout the SF State community will advance social justice, create a climate of anti-racism and produce a community of multiculturalism, inclusion and equity across campus.How is this new "anti-racist" environment going to be inclusive towards the average high IQ, pale, male, STEM student?
