NY Times: U of Michigan Blew a Quarter BILLION on DEI — and HURT Students and Staff

By Selwyn Duke

When even The New York Times complains about your leftism, you know that you not only jumped the shark with wokism, but that the shark you jumped is a megalodon. This is the case, too, with a new report on how the University of Michigan squandered megabucks on DEI indoctrination. The result of these programs?

A decade and a quarter “billion dollars later,” the Times writes, “students and faculty are more frustrated than ever.”

Note that much of this is tax money, too. In fact, the University of Michigan (UoM) campus in question, Ann Arbor, received $357 million in state funds last year. (That’s a 5.1-percent increase over 2022.) Given this, is it possible the UoM has too much money on its hands? Should it be defunded?

Official Put on Leave After Purple-haired Subordinate Complained He Was Hiring Based on Merit, Not Identity

The Oregon Department of Forestry’s second-in-command has been put on administrative leave for committing what is now, apparently, considered misfeasance. His sin?

The official, one Mike Shaw, resolved to hire at his bureau the “candidates most qualified for the job.”

That’s what Megan Donecker — a purple-haired, tattooed DEI trainer who filed a complaint against him — said he told her, anyway.
