Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis advises faculty search committees move away from hiring people based on merit and fit, instead focus on 'equity-minded' professors.
Bill Jacobson, president of the Equal Protection Project, shares how he is organizing a team of lawyers to stop racial discrimination in the workplace on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight.'’s new guidelines for inclusive hiring emphasizes equity credentials over traditional merit -- and even suggests new professors should talk, dress and act"in ways that authentically resonate" with racial minorities.
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis's Office of Academic Affairs issued a document obtained by Fox News Digital that outlines"Inclusive Faculty Search Practices" to improve hiring, advising committees should"move away from abstract conceptions of ‘merit’ and 'fit." "Merit and fit are social constructions grounded in dominant understandings of ‘which professional qualifications are deemed worthy, and which personal attributes and styles are deemed suitable for a position,’" the guidance states.
In one section, the guidance contrasts"traditional fit" values and"equity-minded fit" values, saying traditional prospective worker would approach learning"as an individual enterprise in which students are responsible for their success or failure" while an"equity-minded" fit would include prioritizing the"knowledge and needs of racially minoritized students" while viewing learning as"a collaborative enterprise.
