Cornell University’s Hiring Practices Under Fire

A White biologist is suing Cornell, claiming the university won’t hire qualified White candidates for certain positions. That’s right, you read that correctly – a White person is alleging they’re being discriminated against because of their race.

The Allegations

The scientist, who hasn’t been named, says Cornell intentionally discriminated against them by refusing to consider White people for jobs. It’s a pretty bold claim, and one that’s sure to stir up controversy.

Now, it’s worth noting that this lawsuit is pretty ridiculous. I mean, who sues a university for not hiring them because they’re White? It’s not like Cornell is putting out ads saying ‘Whites need not apply’. But hey, that’s what’s happening here.
