The University of Michigan has fired an administrator after she was accused of saying that Jewish students should not benefit from diversity programs as they are "wealthy and privileged," according to documents obtained by the New York Times on Thursday.
The administrator, Rachel Dawson, formerly worked as director of UoM's office of academic multicultural initiatives.
According to the documents and her lawyer, the firing comes on the back of alleged comments made at a conference in March, in which she claimed the university was "controlled by wealthy Jews."
Dawson also said that “Jewish people have no genetic DNA that would connect them to the land of Israel,” according to the documents, which formed part of a complaint from the Anti-Defamation League of Michigan.
At the March conference, two Jewish professors, including Naomi Yavneh Klos of Loyola University New Orleans, approached Dawson as they were curious about the university's approach to Jewish students.
The other professor asked Dawson if the DEI office works with Jewish students, to which Dawson reportedly said that it did not, as "Jewish students are all rich." The professors then filed a report with ADL.
ADL Michigan sent a letter to the university in August with the claims, and the university subsequently hired a law firm, Covington & Burling, to investigate.

I guessed it would be a Black woman, and I was correct.
If she had just said whites it would have been no problem.
Any professors concerned whether the DEI office works with white gentile students?
Not a fan of the ADL but even less of a fan of DEI. So I’ll get some popcorn and enjoy this show.
Well, one of the Jewish regents wanted her fired, and it happened. The story also mentions another Jewish regent. But no indication as to whether or not they are wealthy.
“ Well, one of the Jewish regents wanted her fired, and it happened. The story also mentions another Jewish regent. But no indication as to whether or not they are wealthy.”
Around here, using the phrase “wealthy regent” would be redundant. IOW, it goes without saying.
Wait, wait wait....Before I read another word....She’s Danish?? Oh darn, I guessed wrong again
On average, they certainly are.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Many Jews are wealthy, but wealth is accessible to us all, if we simply do the right things to obtain it. Unless you were a mogul, heading an industry that was freshly invented, wealth is just the willingness to put your spare money to work to generate more wealth.
It’s easier to blame the Jews than accept responsibility for the disfunction and then fix it.
Schadenfreude.
Lord help me - but I do love it when bad things happen to these people.
Blacks want most whites dead or in concentration camps. Just listen to what the elite blacks are teaching and saying and how they are acting. Most Jews are Caucasion.
According to Microsoft Bing AI...
"The University of Michigan has at least 241 paid staffers dedicated to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion."
"The university has 5.8 DEI personnel for every 100 tenured or tenure-track faculty, compared to an average of 3.4 among 65 universities studied."
"Thirteen University of Michigan DEI staff members earn more than $200,000 and 66 earn more than $100,000 when factoring in benefits."
“...part of a complaint from the Anti-Defamation League of Michigan.”
Strange? Why is the ADL trying to protect Jews? Isn’t their purpose to go after conservatives, particularly Trump voters? Perhaps their Michigan management needs a shake-up?

It’s AMISH here, sometimes Irish. In the Hospitality Industry, it’s “Canadian” (as in “three Canadians at Table 14, and it’s your turn”).
In present-day Israel, some Jews are black, because Israel has accepted refugees from Ethiopia (the Falasha), and the Lemba, a small black tribe from South Africa and Zimbabwe, passed a DNA test that showed they have Levite ancestry. However, the Palestinians are always white. The next time I meet a college-age Student who is pro-Palestinian, I plan to tell them that.
A ton of Arabs in Gaza have bright red hair.
They’re very white.
