Diversity Hire Introduced to Full House

Texas A&M’s brand new Vice President for Diversity, James Anderson, was introduced to a full house audience Nov. 20 (2003), two weeeks before university President Robert Gates announced that affirmative action would be suspended.

Is this what we now call two weeks notice?..

Interesting to note that the new VP was introduced on the occasion of the “3rd Annual” Diversity Symposium in 2003.

According to the student newspaper, one panelist remarked that Anderson, “hasn’t even been here (A&M) for 48 hours and has already been accused of many things.” In reply to which, Anderson was reported to have “laughed in agreement.”
