Okay, so this is what you have to understand, although perhaps you don't want to. The competition for qualified so-called minorities is insanely intense. Now, are the universities supposed to hire people who can't do the job?
Well, obviously, as long as they fit the right bloody racial category, sex category, sex proclivity category, get those LGBT2 types in there, whatever the hell that has to do with scholarship and teaching. The people don't exist. The people don't exist. Do you understand that?

You have to radically lower your criteria in order to meet the mandates, in which case your quality will radically and permanently dip. And if you're training physicians or maybe air traffic controllers, there's another group to think about, maybe you don't do that, eh? Maybe you'd select people for how well they do on the MCAT. Right? Or on the SAT.

And if you can't find people who do, what, in the top 5% if you're a great university, then you don't take them. Because if you do, they hire people who are even worse, and then you're screwed. Really. Then your institution collapses. And that happens very quickly. How many places are there in the world with great university and professional institutions? How many do you think? There are 24...

free Western democracies in the world out of 200 countries. So that's how rare it is. And it took hundreds of years to build those institutions, and they can be destroyed at a moment's notice, and that's what's happened.

So McGill, in an interview with CBC, remember this is from 2017, Dean of Medicine said, David Eidelman said, a number of measures have been put in place to try to recruit more minorities. The university has hired a director specifically charged with improving diversity. There's a new indigenous health program targeting students from indigenous communities.

McGill, moreover, is trying to improve rural recruitment with its Gatineau campus. Eidelman said all medical programs struggle with recruiting minorities. It's hard. Why? Because in order to get into medical school, you need to have very high marks. And then he does this, then he does this. In general, it's easier to get really high marks when you come from a privileged background.

Yeah, well, you know what? It's not that goddamn easy, you know? And the marks either mean something or they don't. And if marks don't mean anything, then why the hell do we have universities? So this statement from Eidelman, it sums up the pathology of the universities and their craven administrators in a nutshell.
