Bravo! Getting rid of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) indoctrination & ideology at U.S. universities! DEI is a huge waste of money and resources for any university!
"The University of Florida’s dramatic housecleaning this past week has swept the institution clear of costly “diversity, equity, and inclusion” (DEI) staffers. But perhaps the real story is how unremarkable Florida’s actions are. Unremarkable, that is, in how little disruption the university faces in executing its core instructional mission as a result of those DEI staffers’ absence. Unremarkable in how smoothly the operations of a college campus can continue absent the drag of DEI. Unremarkable in how easily other states can—and now must—follow suit.
When the Goldwater and Manhattan Institutes partnered to release a blueprint to “abolish the DEI bureaucracy” in January 2023, no state had yet dared to truly do so, even as a growing body of evidence documented its outsized and toxic impacts on higher education throughout the nation. Now, in the span of less than a year, two of the three largest states in the nation—Texas and Florida—have taken on, and defeated, the DEI regime ..."
"A handful of states have been trying to extricate their public universities from the diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) quagmire. Florida demonstrated on Friday how to do it the easy way by shutting down the DEI bureaucracy.
The University of Florida said it is dismissing all DEI staff, closing its DEI office and halting DEI contracts with outside vendors. The school also announced the laid-off staff would get 12 weeks of severance, and that the $5 million saved from the cost of DEI would go to a “faculty recruitment fund.” ..."
No More DEI at the University of Florida The school closes up the diversity and equity bureaucracy.
