[Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com] Pretty much all the news that comes out of our colleges and universities nowadays is unsightly. A good proportion of it is disgusting. Back in January, following the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay, I quoted Amy Wax, speaking about the administration at her... Read More

Yet another academic outrage, although this one concerning not the classroom but published science journals. We science geeks have long since got used to the fact that Scientific American magazine, which we once revered, now has an editorial board composed entirely of hysterical 13-year-old girls. SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN Blogger Turfed Out—Defenestrations Will Continue Until Morale Improves... Read More

Chris Rufo, hero of the counterattack against DEI, has struck again, outing another black female DEI professor, Harvard’s Christina Cross [Email her/Tweet her], pictured right: Rufo goes into (appropriate) excruciating detail about this accusation. He then asks …what is happening at Harvard? We ha

Earlier (by Sam Francis, 2002): Poll Exposes Elite-Public Clash On Immigration [Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com] I had never heard of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity until this week, when a reference to them showed up on Twitter. Going to their website I see that they are a lobby... Read More

[Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com] I'm not sure what the etiquette is for a podcaster borrowing clips from another podcaster, but here's where I shall find out. The other podcaster I'm going to plagiarize here is Richard Hanania, whose book The Origins of Woke came out last year to... Read More

Not a few people have noted that the impressive speed with which Black Harvard President Claudine Gay’s academic reputation has been nuked since she irritated the Israel Lobby. Being able to produce all this obscure information so quickly strongly suggests it had been stockpiled. Which in turn raises the question: upon who else have files... Read More

[Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com] Can I call 'em, or what? Yes, folks: You heard it here first. On November 10th, seven weeks ago, I wrote: Reading the news about our universities taking the side of Hamas after October 7th, I was a bit surprised to see that the... Read More

[Adapted from the latest Radio Derb, now available exclusively on VDARE.com] In common with most sensible people, I believe that public funding for higher education in the United States, including student-loan support, should be strictly limited to mathematics and the real sciences—physics, chemistry, biology, and a few borderline areas like linguistics. If you want to... Read More

Earlier: Hunter Wallace On Christopher Rufo’s “No To The Politics Of Whiteness”—COLORBLIND LIBERALISM HAS FAILED! To defeat a radical movement, you will need radicals on your own side, even if you don’t agree with them. Christopher Rufo knows this, because his book America’s Cultural Revolution: How The Radical Left Conquered Everything, is essentially the history... Read More

In August of 2020, amidst the Covid Pandemic, I started attending Gordon College—a private non-denominational Christian college in Massachusetts. For a long time, Gordon had heroically defied the Culture Wars. But what I found was that it was now effectively capitulating. The problem: the student body. The school made national headlines in 2014, when it... Read More

For every lawyer who hates the Historic American Nation—and its foremost symbol, Donald Trump—there is a legal education that laid the ideological groundwork. Today’s radicals like Alvin Bragg (Harvard), Jack Smith (Harvard), Mark Pomerantz (Michigan), Andrew Weissmann (Columbia), Letitia James (Howard) and Fani Willis (Howard) are on some level practicing jurisprudence they learned in America’s...

I recently found myself at the annual conference of ISIR, the International Society for Intelligence Research. Taking place at the Shatterton Plaza Hotel in Berkeley CA, it is the world’s premier gathering of researchers on IQ and related matters. Absent, of course, was Richard Lynn, who had died a few weeks earlier at the age... Read More

Fairly recently I signed up for the (free) articles emailed from Grey Goose Chronicles, a Substack written by “Stone Age Herbalist”[Follow him on Twitter]. This heroic gentleman, describing himself as “an independent scholar,” is busy becoming unemployable in university faculties by highlighting the destruction inflicted on Politically Correct academic dogma by recent advances in genetic...

Almost four years ago, I looked at the problem of women in universities under the helpful heading Are Women Destroying Academia? Probably. This caused an international uproar when Professor Eric Rasmusen of the University of Indiana [Tweet him]) tweeted my article. The university’s provost and dean—both women, of course, stupidly confirming my point—condemned him as... Read More

When Stanford University’s woke law students heckled and stopped a speech by Judge Kyle Duncan, of the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals U.S., I was reminded that leftist control of universities has taken us back in time. Stanford’s future lawyers were enraged that Duncan refused, in an opinion, to call a “trans woman” prison... Read More

Chart above via R/DataIsBeautiful One of the most controversial issues on the American Right is the so-called “JQ”—the “Jewish Question.” I often receive passionate emails demanding that I discuss the “JQ” or telling me that I am a coward who is too frightened to do so. The Jews “run America,” argue these people, because Jews... Read More

With a few glaring exceptions, such as the late James Flynn, Leftists are systematically less interested in the truth than conservatives. Or to put it more bluntly, they lie more often. Thus a major research project has shown that, when findings in psychology have proven fraudulent, the findings almost always support Leftist ideology. Leftists lie... Read More

I think it was Steve Sailer who first observed that the now-ubiquitous initialism DEI, for "Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion," should more properly be written DIE, as in: "DIE, WHITEY!" Nowhere is that more apt than in the field of medical education, as we were reminded early in November when the Association of American Medical Colleges... Read More
