DiLorenzo on Williams on Affirmative Action

According to Thomas DiLorenzo:
[E]very state-funded university has had a mandatory "affirmative action officer" for at least the past twenty-five years. In addition, many schools also require each academic department to have one as well, who must write an annual report to the Chief Commissar. When I was on the faculty of George Mason University in the 1980s our economics departmental representative was Walter Williams, a fact that OUTRAGED the university Commissar. I can recall one report that Walter wrote saying, "This year we tried to hire a tall, statuesque blond from UCLA, but the university was too cheap to give us enough salary money to enable us to compete for her services."
