This will ultimately only serve as a stregthening of speech codes.

Apparently the only floodgate being opened is by Vivek.

He cites DEI as a villain, discriminating against achievement in favor of skin color, along with racial quotas in admissions

Well, Fareed Zakaria is going to be in trouble - when even leftists like him can see what a disaster DEI is, you'd hope we might see an end in sight. But I expect he will "clarify" shortly and apologize, and universities like Harvard, sitting on billions in endowments, are simply going to ride out the current uproar and keep doing what they're doing.

Bullsh!t. This happened at the same time as the schools are pushing DEI on all of the students.

Liar and hypocrites.

“resignation of woke University of Pennsylvania president Liz Magill”

Resigned as prez.....she’s still a tenured professor there....this isn’t exactly the victory I for one was hoping for.

I saw this same thing happen in 2001 right after the Twin Towers were attacked on 9/11.

The University I worked for at the time suddenly became all Rah-Rah pro-USA, and even passed out little American Flags to put on our desks, and started selling American Flag crossed with the University’s Flag lapel pins.

It lasted about a year, then slowly went back to the same liberal anti-American crap when we invaded Iraq.

They’ll do or say what is necessary until the attention shifts elsewhere, then they’ll return to their normal Woke agenda.

Tide is being held back a bit, for now. The left literally has decades of rot that has infested our educational institutions from Pre-K to the highest levels of miseducation.
Conservatives really just need to wake their sorry asses up and vote the turds out. Too many sit back and just take it.

I’ll state the obvious. Being Fareed Zakaria, he may be given a chance to recant. If a white person had said this, he’d be in the tumbrel and en route to the guillotine already.

She calls this a paradigm shift but it is way too soon to draw that conclusion. Nobody goes down without a fight, and that includes the totalitarian Left. They will take some casualties, like these ridiculous women, but will continue implacably to march, right over their bodies if need be.

I think its going to get much worse for Academia before it gets better. Wokism is a freight train that’s been running at full speed for at least the last two decades. You are not going to stop it on a dime.

“…and demanded that universities return to their core mission of seeking the actual truth, demanding excellence, instead of creating their own “truths.”

Uh, doing so would then make them “wrong” . They are their own god and cannot be wrong. We are wrong and evil, they are right and good.
