Paperback. The Diversity Myth is a powerful, compelling insider's tour of a world of speech codes, dumbed down standards and curricula, campus witch hunts, and anti-Western zealotry masquerading as 'multiculturalism'. Multiculturalism on college campuses has not promoted genuine diversity and tolerance. Instead, it has been used to squelch dissent, stifle intellectual life, and undermine liberal academic traditions through 'political correctness'. No American university has been more closely identified with this trend than Stanford University. In this trenchant, hard-hitting book, David Sacks and Peter Thiel (both Stanford graduates) draw upon hundreds of primary sources, such as class readings, The Stanford Daily, and official university publications, to produce a damning portrait of a university that has recreated the taboos, myths, rites, and social intolerance characteristic of many non-Western societies. A powerful exploration of the debilitating impact that politically-correct ""multiculturalism"" has had upon higher education and academic freedom in the United States. This book exposes the real impact of multiculturalism on the institution most closely identified with the politically correct decline of higher education - Stanford University.
