The dim lighting and vacant offices were the first clues.
Other changes struck Nina Washington, a senior at the University of Texas, when she returned to her favorite study spot from winter break. The words “Multicultural Center” had been taken off the wall, erasing an effort begun in the late 1980s to serve historically marginalized communities on campus. The center’s staff members were gone, its student groups dissolved.
“Politics, behaviors and emotions are returning to the old ways,” said Washington, who as a Black woman found a sense of community at the center.
The void in the heart of the nearly 52,000-student campus is one of many changes rippling across college campuses in Texas, where one of the nation’s most sweeping bans on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives took effect Jan. 1.
This is the part I don’t understand. I work in higher ed so it’s obvious that highly educated people see diversity as a strength and not a weakness. By definition you are weakening the core of education with this shit. Students aren’t dumb and will vote with their dollars. Not to mention the good faculty won’t stand for this kinda crap and will move. I mean as a student it is an investment in your future so why would you settle for an inferior product?
They don’t care about the students, they just want the education system to propagandize for them.
No I know they don’t. But universities without students aren’t really viable.
Wdym? They have a football team
/s
Yes, and that’s their goal. They don’t want viable universities for the masses.
