Syracuse athletic director John Wildhack has added a position to his department, bucking a trend toward athletic cuts during the coronavirus pandemic. Salatha T. Willis was named associate athletic director for diversity, culture and climate this week. He is charged with developing and implementing new ways to create an equitable culture among the universitys student-athletes, administrators, coaches and staff in the athletic department. Our society is going through an incredibly challenging time, Wildhack said. Whether its Ahmaud Arbery, whether its George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, there are blatant acts of racism and people murdered. You combine that with 400 years of systemic oppression of Black people, if were going to be a change agent, then we need to recognize that we need to change and we need to do better. The time is right, we have the right individual. Lets act.

Oh, her job must me to ensure that there are more whites on the football team.
Yet one more example, as if I needed one, on why I will not send my kids to college.

more whites on the basketball team. And more blacks on the hockey, tennis, and golf teams.
Leftist zombies bloat up the large institutions—before destroying them.
Football and basketball make the money for colleges and universities, and both of them are black top heavy player wise....a diversity director is redundant, nothing more than a token position to appease.
Exactly; these bloated bureaucracies can’t cry poverty when they can pay for this. Just part of the mass wealth transfer to maintain the illusion of assimilation.
They need to fire the brain dead cowardly administrator who came up with this stupid idea of a diversity officer for sports teams.
Not surprised. /eyeroll
“400 years of systemic oppression of Black people”
So even today, all Black people are oppressed? Tell that that to Oprah, or Michael Jordon, or Mike Tyson, or Will Smith, etc. All the hundreds of thousands of black millionaires in the USA.
Yeah, that sure is oppressed all right.
Yep. The left is busy adding commissars to all our institutions.
Stupi is as stupid does.
Orangemen bad...
.....”He is charged with developing and implementing......”
I believe this person is of the male persuasion.....
...a diversity director is redundant, nothing more than a token position to appease.
As they are in every setting where they appear: public, private, corporate, etc. It should be illuminating to know the number of Caucasian males filling such positions. My sense from mere anecdotal observations tells me they are as rare as unicorns.
With an endowment of $1.3bln, Sewercuse will not survive the upcoming culling of overly expensive, mediocre indoctrination centers.
“Diversity” officials are the Marxists version of political czars to oversee everyone else. In Germany it was called the SS.
Will there be more whites on the basketball team? More blacks in water polo?
Or she's been persuaded that she's male...
