Oakland University student required to participate in DEI event to graduate

“A Michigan student whistleblower has stepped forward to reveal that Oakland University is requiring him to participate in a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) networking event,” reports Campus Reform. The student,

who is a senior at Oakland pursuing a degree in finance, explained that one of his professors instructed him to enroll in two zero-credit courses that are related to one another: SBC 3990, a business ethics course, and FIN 3990, a finance education course.,,,

“As I am looking through the course material for the final class (3990) I noticed a module labeled ‘Module 4: Cultural Agility & Awareness’ and read more about the module and it explicitly talks about DEI and part of the module is you are required to go to a DEI networking event with a DEI speaker,” the whistleblower continued. The event is slated for Nov. 13.

Not only does the student whistleblower have to attend the event, but he is also required to write a DEI reflection piece as part of the overall score.

The student says that from his “understanding the Trump Admin has made it illegal to force DEI teaching but the website to report schools is down.” It is not clear that the Trump administration had the statutory authority to ban DEI teaching, however stupid DEI indoctrination may be. Racial preferences are generally illegal, but teaching stupid leftist ideology is generally legal.

Princeton University is still requiring DEI and microaggression training, and is probably still discriminating based on race in hiring and admissions. Medical students at the University of Cincinnati recite a DEI oath.

President Trump has issued executive orders against DEI, but many colleges still haven’t ended even illegal DEI practices that discriminate based on race. For example, the University of Illinois Chicago illegally retaliated against a professor who criticized racially discriminatory hiring policies that discriminated against whites. That professor was forced out of his job and left unemployed for nearly a year as a result. The Liberty Justice Center is fighting back on behalf of the professor.

study by a California State University professor found that an increase in “diversity, equity and inclusion” policies at a college is linked to rising opposition there to free speech. “The rise of DEI bureaucracies has actually coincided with the beginning of a ‘Free-Speech Crisis on College Campuses,’” noted the study.

College DEI staffers encourage illegal discrimination against whites and Asians. For example, at the University of California at Los Angeles, the Director of Race and Equity advocated denying white employees leave because of their race. That director, Johnathan Perkins, also claimed that “every white person is racist to some degree”, and falsely claimed that “white people cannot be victims of racism,” and “only white people can impose racist harm.” These claims disregarded court rulings finding that whites can be victims of racism and nonwhites can act illegally in committing racist acts.

Perkins told whites not to wish him a “Happy Juneteenth” because he will “flip tf out” if they do. He reacted to the death of England’s Queen Elizabeth by saying,“Good riddance.”

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) staff harbor high levels of antisemitism, reports The College Fix.
