i'm actually speechless. diversity is good, but doesn't it need to be taught to those who don't know diversity? isn't the bronx already diverse? wow, this political correctness and sensitivity is getting way out of hand, it's becoming ludicrous (no pun intended).

i'm actually against political correctness becaus eof the lengths it's going to, and many actually agree with me, i wrote an essay against it when i applyed for an academic summer program, and it seemed to impress the judges a lot and i got in. hmmm....at first i'd thought they'd throw it out because i was against it, and the program is held at cornell univ. and i know many universities are liberal and support it....

or how about someone that spends 50-70K in schooling and can't get a job because the baby boomers have not retired. So, this person around my age is working in a call center or starbucks waiting for the baby boomers to retire. But, it won't happen until they are 70 because 9/11 destroyed their retirement.

This is America.

Trust me, don't worry. Companies will soon be crying for educated employees.
