They put this video up for recruitment and were forced to take it down for being called racist by showing a lack of diversity. I've been reading about college campuses, things are getting ridiculous, it is going beyond being politically correct.

"Microaggressions are small actions or word choices that seem on their face to have no malicious intent but that are thought of as a kind of violence nonetheless. For example, by some campus guidelines, it is a microaggression to ask an Asian American or Latino American “Where were you born?,†because this implies that he or she is not a real American. Trigger warnings are alerts that professors are expected to issue if something in a course might cause a strong emotional response. For example, some students have called for warnings that Chinua Ac****’s Things Fall Apart describes racial violence and that F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby portrays misogyny and physical abuse, so that students who have been previously victimized by racism or domestic violence can choose to avoid these works, which they believe might “trigger†a recurrence of past trauma."
things are getting ridiculous and even the liberal media agrees, or maybe they are afraid that it getting so ridiculous that it will have the opposite affect eventually
