The University of Colorado announced Friday that Sallye McKee will become the first vice chancellor for diversity, equity and community engagement.

"I want students to say, 'Because I was at CU-Boulder, I'm able to live and work better as a leader in a global society,'" McKee said.

The new position elevates the dialogue about diversity to the chancellor's cabinet.

Is there ONE “White Christian Male” anywhere in charge of any “diversity” department? No. So this is a fraud.

What the heck does this mean? "Elevates the dialogue"? I still don't understand why "diversity" has to be mandated. I guess my dialogue isn't sufficiently elevated.

As I understand it, there is no oversight for CU spending by the state. If I remember right, there is no audit procedure possible. CU can spend what they want, ask for more, and never be held accountable.

“This really is silly. These liberals only do such things to make them feel better about themselves. I doubt any of this has any real impact on education or how people feel about themselves. No wonder people look at CU Boulder and laugh.”

The local school district up here in Longmont has several “Diversity Directors”. My take on it is that they ensure the illegal alien termites sucking off the taxpayers are getting the maximum amount of benefits.

Cu has been apparently getting big money from estates and foundations for their endowment funds recently. I do not recall the number exactly.

As a tribute to Sallye, the department will be named The Department of Diversity, Equity, Community Engagement, and Funny First Names.

vice chancellor for diversity, equity and community engagement

Isn't that the honorary title used by the cook, Neelix, on Star Trek: Voyager

Alumni can put pressure nobody else can create because of their donations. If I remember correctly, Duke suffered big time during the faux-rape case.

I’m sorry to hear that. My understanding was otherwise and I appreciate being set straight.

Hire me. What the heck, I will just copy and paste my speeches from whatever handbook of platitudes they have. Easy money.
