THE DIVERSITY MYTH charges that politicized classes and student activities have led to an ironic intolerance on campusintolerance of all things Western.
NEWSWEEK
The story of THE DIVERSITY MYTH is based at Stanford, but this book is larger than that. As a Harvard graduate, I recognize my own school in these pages, and quite likely you will too. By detailing the current corruption of our academic ideals with a larger audience, David Sacks and Peter Thiel have hastened the much-needed and long-awaited restoration of higher education.
CHRISTOPHER COX
United States Congressman
If you want to find out what went wrong at Stanford University, read THE DIVERSITY MYTH . There's hardly a better source than this book for learning why multiculturalism on campus cannot work.
LINDA CHAVEZ
former Director, U. S. Commission on Civil Rights
THE DIVERSITY MYTH is a carefully documented and sensitively recorded historical account of the whole tragic saga, together with keen analysis of how all this could have happened. Future historians will find this book indispensable.

The Independent Institute is a nonprofit, scholarly research and educational organization which sponsors comprehensive studies on the political economy of critical social and economic problems.
The politicization of decision-making in society has largely confined public debate to the narrow reconsideration of existing policies. Given the prevailing influence of partisan interests, little social innovation has occurred. In order to understand both the nature of and possible solutions to major public issues, the Independent Institute's program adheres to the highest standards of independent inquiry and is pursued regardless of prevailing political or social biases and conventions. The resulting studies are widely distributed as books and other publications, and are publicly debated through numerous conference and media programs.
Through this uncommon independence, depth, and clarity, the Independent Institute pushes at the frontiers of our knowledge, redefines the debate over public issues, and fosters new and effective directions for government reform.
