[lbo-talk] Harvard selling indulgences

[Wojtek S]

Scientific racism has no place in 21st-century academia. Yet somehow, in
2009, Jason Richwine<http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/09/us/heritage-analysts-dissertation-on-immigrant-iq-causes-furor.html?ref=todayspaper&_r=1&>
was
able to successfully defend a
dissertation<http://www.scribd.com/doc/140239668/IQ-and-Immigration-Policy-Jason-Richwine>
at
Harvard University in which he wrote that Hispanic immigrants have a
substantially lower IQ than the white native-born population and that,
because of the hereditary nature of IQ, this fact should be taken into
consideration when designing immigration policy.

[WS:]  I am glad I do not have my credentials from Harvard.  If I did, I
would ask for money back.  They really cheapened the brand.
