Ideological Purity

Yes, medical schools have retained their non-ideological purity. It’s not like they have advocated for child mutilation and regaled us with the idea that infectious diseases don’t spread during ideologically acceptable large gatherings.

Sciences have also remained unaffected and haven’t decolonized math and argued that it’s racist to say that 2+2=4.

And engineering didn’t fight tooth and claw to retain its numerous “women in Engineering” and “POC in Engineering” scholarships and awards.

  1. The sciences may be a lost cause, from physics on down.

    However non-converged Engineering departments provide a seed to rebuild dedicated colleges of mining, computer technology, nursing, et al. IFF they are forcibly freed from the Academic departments, converged HR bureaucracies, and State and Federal DIE mandates.

  2. I see what you’re saying but this ideological pollution came from humanities departments. Physicists and engineers didn’t come up with critical theory and intersectionality. These ideas originated from elsewhere and only made their way into STEM through the power of the state. And once they make their way in, people fell in line to protect and advance their careers. I will agree that careerism is for sure universal and STEM people are as craven and cowardly as anybody else in academia.
