Every time you think the Poohbahs of Politically Correct Living cannot dream up anything more gallactically moronic than their last Declaration on Diversity, they do. When last we heard from Clemson University, they declared Taco Tuesday racist. Now, they have declared manners and individual thought racist. And, this is what they call higher learning today.

To catch you up, October, 2015, Clemson University had to apologize for having Maximum Mexican Night in the Dining Hall. At one time, this might have been seen as diversity and inclusion. Taco Tuesday would have been seen as expanding our cultural knowledge. Now, it is culturally insensitive AND cultural appropriation. The dining staff wore sombreros, for crying out loud!

The Daily Caller is reporting that Clemson University has spent almost $27,000 for a new diversity training program. The post is titled “Public University’s ‘Diversity Training’: Expecting People To Show Up On Time Is Racist”. From the article:

The training materials are a series of slides depicting scenarios with fictional characters.

One slide features a guy named Alejandro who plans a meeting between two groups. Each group contains foreign professors and students. One group shows up 15 minutes early. The second group shows up 10 minutes late.

A question-and-answer section then instructs Clemson’s professors that Alejandro would be insufficiently “inclusive” if he were to “politely ask the second group to apologize.” Alejandro would also be wrong to advise the straggling, late people who aren’t respecting everyone else’s time that “in our country, 9:00 a.m. means 9:00 a.m.”

The “inclusive” thing for Alejandro to do, the taxpayer-funded diversity materials instruct Clemson professors, is to “recognize cultural differences that may impact the meeting and adjust accordingly.” Alejandro must understand “that his cultural perspective regarding time is neither more nor less valid than any other.”

Now, to me, this whole scenario seems racist. I was raised to have manners and think of my hosts in business and in social situations. But, then that would be me thinking for myself and that cannot be allowed at Clemson University because:
