Do ‘Campus Climate’ Surveys Tell Us Anything?

One of the tricks used by leftists is to do a “survey” that purports to find something that needs to be corrected by, of course, some new program that undermines what’s left of freedom. On college campuses, this is done by conducting a survey seeking to find racism, saying that it has been found, and then calling for more activism to combat it.

In today’s Martin Center article, Grace Hall points out a new survey of this sort by NASPA, the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators. NASPA is a completely woke outfit that works to create a “co-curriculum” run by administrators wherein students are given doses of “progressive” ideology by low-level functionaries.

Hall writes:

Underlying the new report is the contemporary leftist notion that one’s race is the single most important aspect of one’s being. No longer does society define a person based on his or her merit, accomplishments, or character; instead, race reigns above all.

That sums up the leftist view on race. The report also claims to find that most students think there’s a racism problem on campus. More work must be done!

It will be a good day in America when nobody bothers with such reports any longer.
