Did we learn nothing from the wisdom and teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? Would not merit, knowledge, and character be better benchmarks of humanity rather than one's sex, creed, race, or color? How does one feel accomplishment or pride in achievement knowing that one's sex is the real driver and not one's actual work?

Compelled "diversity" used simply to force so-called "inclusion" in no way promotes strength of a nation, a professional field, a community, an individual, or a university department. Strength comes from the unity for a common good by the combined efforts of individuals and their achievements. The Founders of the United States of American adopted "E pluribus Unum" as the nations motto: "From many, one."

Affirmative Action has been a colossal failure to blacks in the U.S., and "diversity" will fail just as miserably.
