There’s been a problem in higher education for quite some time. Colleges and universities are less interested in educating people than they are indoctrinating them into woke, Leftist ideologies. At the same time, bloated administrative staff and government-backed student loans have made tuition costs (and student loan debt) skyrocket. It’s a recipe for disaster, but academica doesn’t seem keen on changing any time soon.
At Ohio State University (OSU), for example, they recently hired an Assistant Professor of Black Sexualities.
Zalika U. Ibraorimi, who has “she/they” pronouns, has some interesting areas of expertise, including “Black Sexual Logics,” “Dark Black Study,” “Anti-Blackness,” and “Black Digital Intimacy.”
OSU describes Ibraorimi as “an antidisciplinary artist” (someone who deliberately rejects traditional artistic categories) and wrote that “she engages Black material and digital publics as landscapes to trace the Human sexual geographies between the relation of the Black femme and spectator.”
Um, what?
As Salier pointed out, Ibraorimi was hired because the Mellon Foundation gave OSU almost $3 million to “transform” the Department of African American and African studies.
