Another fine example of left wing bias in academia.

Duke dean promises to block tenure for faculty who are ‘intolerant,’ undefined

If you want tenure at Duke University, stay current on the latest microaggressions and zip your lips.

Valerie Ashby, the dean of the Trinity College of Arts and Sciences, told a campus forum on “bias and hate” earlier this month that it will be closely scrutinizing faculty in their annual reviews, The Chronicle reported:

In addition, she noted that all faculty serving on search committees are required to undergo implicit bias training through the Office of Institutional Equity.

“We will evaluate the entirety of the person—you can’t be a great scholar and intolerant. You have to go,” she said.

Here’s the full video of that forum, and here’s the snippet where Ashby tells faculty who don’t measure up “you have to go,” clipped by Brooklyn College History Prof. KC Johnson:

The transcript:

We’re also really working on the new faculty who step in the door, and really trying to teach them ‘these are our values, this is what’s tolerable here, this is what’s not, this is how we feel about these things’ [President Richard Brodhead interjects: “That’s right”], and at every point of their evaluation, and at every point of a chance where we have an opportunity to make a decision about whether or not you are Duke, we will evaluate the entirety of the person. And so you can’t be a great scholar and be intolerant. You have to go. [applause]

We aren’t adding emphasis to Ashby’s words at the end – she says it like she’s firing somebody, and the crowd applauds.
