Diversity training took up my last 2 whole days. I thought it was going to be a total waste of time, but I ended up learning some stuff! Like, if you're in a dominant group (white, male) - that incidents of discrimination against less-dominant groups can go largely unnoticed. In other words, it's tough to see discrimination when you're not the one receiving it.

Diversity training? That doesn't sound like something an engineer would go to? I knew that you engineers would start to come around. Long live the social sciences!
