College Fix: Ohio State’s new intellectual diversity director

Legal scholar Lee Strang is now at Ohio State University to lead the Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture and Society. It is one of five new “intellectual diversity” centers at public Ohio universities that are in the works. They will work to promote “civic thought and leadership,” according to Strang, a former University of Toledo professor.

Intellectual diversity is important to get all sides of an issue.  This sounds like a good move, but we’ll see what this center actually accomplishes.
