Diversity Training Day

The Weekly Standard has an article titled "Where Everybody Is Disadvantaged - Postcards from the diversity follies" by Matt Labash.

The article is long but Mr. Labash is very amusing and its well worth the read. I found this quote below especially revealing.

The Washington Post reported last year on a study led by Alexandra Kalev, a sociologist at the University of Arizona, which comprehensively reviewed 31 years of data from 830 mid-to-large U.S. workplaces. The findings: Diversity training exercises at companies were followed by a 7.5 percent drop in the number of women in management. Black female managers declined by 10 percent, and black men in top positions fell by 12 percent, with similar numbers for Asians and Latinos.

Now I'm all about variety being the spice of life but choking off someone's career for the sole sake of "diversity" doesn't seem all that smart.
