Not the Babylon Bee

No conformist he, Blake flouts convention and eschews the button down collar. No pasarán!, bro’ — I absolutely dig you! Right on!

College professor: campus conformity perpetuates racial inequality

Blake Silver’s new book “The Cost of Inclusion: How Student Conformity Leads to Inequality on College Campuses” details the daily activities of some 100 college students participating in “a living-learning community, a club sports team and a student organization focused on service.”

Silver tells Inside Higher Ed that instead of helping prepare students for life in “a diverse democratic society,” extracurriculars actually pressure students to conform.

If there’s any institution that demands conformity and punishes wrong-thinking more than the modern college campus, it’s the institutions where graduates of those colleges end up. Like Google, like Twitter.

I don’t think Professor Silver’s speaking about that kind of conformity, though.
