As is often the case with divisive public policy issues, the diversity rationale and its foundation, the ideal of diversity itself, have been critiqued with renewed fervor.

While the practicing physician's goal is to care for patients, promoting and maintaining their health, the research physician's goal is to produce generalizable knowledge. These distinct goals give rise to practices and methods that are not only different but also sometimes contrary, leading many to wonder: How can one be a responsible physician and a responsible researcher?

Locke understood that since God created Nature, humanity has a moral and spiritual obligation to respect and preserve it. Locke was right to argue, however, that from the perspective of economic value, Nature furnishes only "worthless materials."
