Radical leftist policies in higher education, inflicted under the guise of “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI),” appear to be facing increasing opposition, Daily Signal Columnist Jarrett Stepman says.

In a column published on September 13, Stepman references a report in the New York Times discussing how DEI has become a hiring standard at colleges and universities, notably through diversity statements, as “nearly half the large universities in America require that job applicants write such statements.”

Generally, diversity statements assess the way in which potential hires adhere to DEI talking points. One such example is the diversity viewpoint standards outlined by the University of California Berkeley, in which the highest-scoring candidates are required to have “clear knowledge of, experience with, and interest in dimensions of diversity that result from different identities, such as ethnic, socioeconomic, racial, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and cultural differences.”

Similar DEI-focused hiring standards have also been revealed by the National Opportunity Project to have been implemented in the public school system in various districts across the country.

If you want to destroy your organization and foster seething resentments among your employees in the meantime, be sure to listen to THOSE morons.
