Harvard
president takes public stance on sexism
Harvard's
president has suggested that the paucity
of women in science and engineering or top
management positions is due to their genetic
endowment and not due to environmental factors
such as socialization and prejudice. But
a freshman should be able to see the defects
in his reasoning (which amounts to
saying there are fewer women in top management
positions because they are genetically incapable
of, or averse to, the hard work such positions
require and the evidence that they are genetically
incapable or disinclined is that there
are fewer women in top management positions)
just made public in The New York Times,
on Feb. 18.
Like
many others, he is president through crime
and membership in a certain ethnic group.
If you do a Google search on "Einstein
plagiarism," you will see how Einstein
stole most of the things he is credited
with. In a pamphlet titled "Crime in
Academia and Psychology, and B. F. Skinner"
that I published 21 years ago, I documented
how universities such as Harvard and MIT
function as a syndicate of organized crime.
A
psychologist who has been reported by the
New York Times to be the main inspiration
for the Harvard president's reasoning has
been a beneficiary of the crimes I have
documented.
