The can't refuse to hire you if you're a communist but you'd better support diversity, at least at UC San Diego:
As an addition to the "I probably couldn't get a job as an academic these days" file comes this link (via @roddreher) to a University of California San Diego document requiring a written statement from faculty applicants:You can't make such silliness up. Remember when loyalty oaths were a bad thing?
The Contributions to Diversity Statement should describe your past efforts, as well as future plans to advance diversity, equity and inclusion. It should also demonstrate an understanding of the barriers facing women and underrepresented minorities and of UC San Diego’s mission to meet the educational needs of our diverse student population...
Recently for the professor evaluations the students filled out they asked how the professor promoted these values of diversity and inclusion, which made little sense for my engineering classes. I guess they could use a disabled genderqueer minority engineer in their word problems for the homework
