Accepting students, hiring staff and faculty, based on diversity standards is in itself a form of discrimination and stereotyping. Not holding every student to the same admission standards teaches students that it’s not how hard you work or what you’ve achieved, but what desirable diversity group you fit into that matters. Rewarding under-performance creates bias, another class of “wronged” people, and can actually create discrimination within people where none previously existed.
