PAGE 10 ThuRSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1996 THE ITIIACAN Diversity cannot be downsized Welcome to 1950. While the rest of the world seems to be moving swiftly towards the new millennium, Ithaca College is stuck in the past. The College's faculty is overwhelmingly comprised of white men. Well, here's some news: the real world, for which higher education supposedly prepares college students, is no longer completely dominated by Caucasian males. Recent events have made Ithaca College's lack of diversity glaringly obvious. Two weeks ago, Nicholas Wharton, director of the Equal Opportu­ nity Program, announced his resignation.When Wharton leaves in March, there will be four minority-support positions vacant. Considering the lack of minority professors on campus, the community of color THE ITHACAN'S VIEW needs these positions to be filled immediately. In this year's tenure process, Howard Erlich, dean of the School of Humanities and Sciences, has recommended against tenure for three women. While no one would sanction granting tenure to an unaccept­ able candidate merely on the basis of gender, it is extremely disturbing that economic difficulties appear to be the driving force behind the Illustration by Tim Lvnch negative votes. Further, at least one more woman stands to be denied tenure as a LETTERS result of the tenure cap policy, which limits the number of tenured faculty in a department. The tenure cap could obstensibly be used to discourage stagnation within departments. However, by forcing the recently hired women and minorities to be denied tenure, it serves only Amani not receiving enough to maintain the status quo. Ithaca College students are being deprived of a complete educa­ tion by not having a more diverse faculty. support from music school This is not to say that current faculty members are not good educators or that all white men should be replaced by minorities.
