 Portland State rejects ‘Conservative Political Thought’ course because it’s not inclusive

Latest snub toward ‘The Case for Colonialism’ professor

Portland State University didn’t like a professor’s explanation of how his proposed “Conservative Political Thought” graduate course would “represent a broad diversity of voices” and be “culturally responsive.”

Those are Graduate Council requirements for new courses, and Bruce Gilley challenged their common academic interpretations in his application for the course.

The council rejected his proposal on Wednesday, citing the political science professor’s answers to the diversity sections on the new-course application. It also dinged Gilley because a librarian allegedly didn’t respond to his request to discuss what library resources he’d need for the course, another requirement.

It's not inclusive in that only certain people can take it?  What does this mean?
