Multiple videos circulating online show Seldowitz talking with a halal cart vendor, at different times of day and wearing different outfits. It is not clear how many times Seldowitz was recorded at the cart or what days the videos were filmed.

America's elites are not fit for purpose - Rod Dreher, The European Conservative, 11 December 2023
https://europeanconservative.com/articl ... r-purpose/

...It is a wonder to consider how the United States, in only sixty years, overcame American apartheid and stigmatized anti-black racism, in part by making Martin Luther King Jr.’s color-blindness a core principle of the American civic creed, only to succumb in this century to a new racism that extols the racialized hatred of white people as the pinnacle of progressive consciousness. But that is where we are, in nearly every institution governed by the norms of American elites.

This DEI creed is like a fundamentalist religion, one that cannot be falsified. Nearly twenty years ago, at a journalism conference, I argued with a colleague about the new push to “diversify” newsrooms by hiring people of color who had significantly fewer qualifications than white competitors. There’s no way to produce journalism under these circumstances without its quality suffering, I contended. To the contrary, said my colleague, “diversity is a component of quality.”

For that senior journalist, diversification with no loss of expertise was possible if you manipulated the definition of “quality.” Easy as that. No wonder Claudine Gay, a black woman, managed to ascend to the presidency of the world’s most prestigious university, despite a miserly scholarly record that cannot boast of a single academic book. (By contrast, Lawrence Summers, who served as Harvard president from 2001-2006, published more academically in the year 1987 alone than Gay has in her entire career.)

When you elevate leaders based not on actual accomplishment, but rather on how well they fulfill ideological preferences, you should not be surprised by humiliating events like last week’s debacle before Congress. I’ll give you an example of how this works from outside the world of academia.

Two decades ago, covering the Catholic sex abuse scandal, I expressed shock to clerical friends over the utter incompetence and cowardice of bishops—not just one or two bishops, but of most of them. These priests, who were also angry over it, explained to me that the institutional church selects bishops not for holiness or administrative capability, but for a capacity to keep the system moving along. All was well until the disastrous 2002 Boston trial of child molester priest John Geoghan resulted in a wealth of damning church documents entering the public square, and revealed to the entire world the cozy, corrupt standards of the Catholic hierarchy.

With any luck, the same thing will now happen to elite academia. Did you know that at Yale, nearly 80% of grades are As—that is, the top grade possible in the American system? Numbers are similar at Harvard. We have no way now to measure the quality of work done by the students who will move from their privileged perches at elite schools into leadership-track positions throughout the U.S. system.

It’s not only elite schools by any means. Last weekend, the Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin system refused $800 million from the state legislature, in exchange for freezing DEI hiring, and the repurposing of DEI workers within the universities. DEI is a political religion for these fanatics; this is a hill that they will die on, even as they devalue the image of U.S. higher education around the world.
