Rothfus: Yes, you’re doing your job.
(Rothfus handed over the posters and left).
Mimi Rothfus is just an 18-year old freshman at Pepperdine. But she already understands the job requirements of Don Lawrence. If you haven’t yet figured it out, Don Lawrence is the Director of Intercultural Affairs at Pepperdine University.
Any university that decides to hire a Director of Intercultural Affairs is a university that will soon find itself in rapid decline. Put simply, it is a decision that the university is beginning to take seriously the notion of multi-culturalism. The advancement of multiculturalism, by the way, promotes tolerance of all ideas. Of course, the idea that there is something special about Western civilization in general or American culture in particular is an exception to the rule.
Ironically, those who work as Directors of Intercultural Affairs are all cut from the same cloth. They are Democrats, self-described liberals, and, in 2008, they voted for Barack Obama. In other words, they aren’t a very diverse bunch of people.
The multiculturalists also envision a world without borders. They want open-ended immigration. And they think it’s really neat that U.S. Supreme Court justices are starting to interpret our constitution by relying on the laws of other nations and the so-called “international community.”
Put simply, Directors of Intercultural Affairs have an affinity for cultural, if not economic, Marxism. And that is why they are offended by posters that make references to “Obama and Socialism.” They want their candidate to win. But they want their agenda to remain hidden.
Leftist readers of my column will say that I am making a lot of assumptions about Don Lawrence, Director of Intercultural Affairs at Pepperdine University. Maybe that’s because he refuses to talk to me. Instead, he’s instructed me to direct my questions to Pepperdine’s PR department. At least Pepperdine administrators are smart enough to realize they have a PR problem on their hands.
Ryan Sawtelle, President of the CRs is now reporting that Don Lawrence confiscated and banned the “Obama and Socialism” signs in response to a directive from the higher administration. Three questions follow:
- What is the name of the Pepperdine administrator who directed Don Lawrence to ban and confiscate the “Obama and Socialism” signs?
- Is it not academic whoredom to make a living confiscating political signs from teenaged kids?
- What the hell is happening at the once-great and once-conservative Pepperdine University?
