Researchers say that is a conservative estimate
A new report from the American Enterprise Institute found that nearly 20 percent of university faculty job listings require a pledge of support for diversity.
“Across all 999 jobs [reviewed by the think tank], we find that 19 percent require diversity statements, while 68 percent include the terms ‘diversity’ or ‘diverse’ in some fashion, often as a way of describing the university environment,” the report said.
And the researchers told The College Fix that the number is a conservative estimate and they were not surprised with the results.
“I was not surprised to learn that 1 in 5 jobs require diversity statements,” James Paul told The College Fix via an email interview. “But we had a conservative system for identifying such requirements, and I’m sure that our counts are a lower-bound estimate.”
Paul is also the research director for the Educational Freedom Institute. He conducted the research with University of Arkansas Professor Robert Maranto .
Paul’s research did not capture jobs that used related terms such as “antiracism” or asked applicants to have research on topics such as immigration or refugees. The researchers looked at both four-year colleges and community colleges.

“A job posting needed to explicitly mention ‘diversity’ or ‘diverse’ in order for us to code it as requiring such a statement,” Paul said. “If a job posting required an equity statement, or a statement of anti-racism, we did not capture it in our paper. This makes our estimates conservative, but also more objective and replicable.”
Examples cited in the paper include: “How do you think about diversity, equity, and inclusion [DEI], including factors that influence underrepresentation of particular groups in academia, and the experiences of individuals from particular groups within academia?” and “Coming into a new institution will involve changes and being busy! Please let us know how you plan to integrate DEI into your role as a faculty member, including new or existing initiatives you would like to be involved with.”The research paper said that traditionally right-leaning fields such as the hard sciences and engineering require diversity statements.“Prestigious universities are significantly more likely to have DEI […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
