Does the information that you provide include the classes that you took? Really? I wonder if that's a field based thing. I've only seen degrees, employment history, courses taught, papers published, kind of stuff on CVs. I've never seen a transcript kind of thing. Is the listing of courses common in your field?

It's odd that it seems like they want to get rid of you, rather than they want to see what you've done. Or is that already in your presentation and they're asking for even more substantiation when they ask for the CV?

The race/ethnicity and gender stuff may never completely go away, but at least as you built a professional reputation, who you are will be understood in advance by more and more people that you work with.
