*All individuals and organizations receive 7 full days of pre-publication notice (11 including weekends).
*I ask for a request for comment from the philosophy department instead of the university spokesperson because it's the philosophy department (philosophers) that are racist or sexist.
*I round up to one decimal place for all figures.
In a request for comment I ask them:
1. Do you believe that 1/12 women in tenure-track positions represents sexism in the University of Delaware philosophy department?
2. Do you believe that 0/12 visible minorities in tenure-track positions represents racism in the University of Delaware philosophy department?
University of Delaware Philosophy Professor George Draper is kind enough to respond:
My answers are no and no. If you would like any details, please let me know.
0% visible minorities and 8.3% women in tenure-track positions and Draper believes that racism and sexism doesn't exist in the department? Seriously?
