What We Need More Of, Especially At Berkeley

Jobs like this one:
The University of California, Berkeley invites applications for a position as an Assistant Professor (tenure-track) in any of the following three areas: (1) Diversity and Identity; (2) Legal or Philosophical Frameworks for Diverse Democracies; and (3) Diversity, Civil Society and Political Action, or some combination thereof. The anticipated starting date is July 1, 2012. The search is part of the interdisciplinary Haas Diversity Research Center and will be conducted under the auspices of the Diversity and Democracy cluster of this Center. Applicants may read about the Haas Diversity Research Center and the Diversity and Democracy cluster at the website: http://diversity.berkeley.edu/hdrc.
There's definitely a diversity problem at Berkeley, but it's not the problem implied in this job posting.
