The diversity myth

Multiculturalism and Political Intolerance on Campus
Book • 1995
This book provides a detailed analysis of the multicultural experiment at Stanford University in the 1980s.

It explores how multiculturalism transformed the curriculum, extracurricular activities, and overall campus life, leading to what the authors argue is a stifling of intellectual freedom and a decline in academic standards.

The authors use primary sources to reveal the politicization of classes, housing, and other university programs, and they argue that multiculturalism has resulted in a culture of victimization and anti-Western zealotry.

The book is divided into two parts, one focusing on the new academic environment and the other on the broader social, political, and cultural implications of multiculturalism.
