This was predictable, of course. When President Trump and states began their crackdown on DEI policies in universities -- places that get tons of state and federal tax money, by the way -- the universities were going to find ways to get around the rules by rebranding DEI.
And they're bragging about it:
CAUGHT ON CAMERA: An official at the University of Iowa was recorded in an undercover video bragging about how she and others at the school have been taking steps to "operate around" state and federal DEI bans, saying, "I am proud of the fight." pic.twitter.com/mT4yDbjTzc

They're so brazen in their lawlessness.
I have zero sympathy for these officials. They know what the law is and they know the mood of the country towards DEI.

They think they're better than us.
Firing offense.

They should lose funding. And she should get fired.
Behold, the face of our gatekeepers.

Paging Harmeet Dhillon. Paging Harmeet Dhillon.

We're sure she's on it.
It's not enough to eliminate DEI programs; you must also dismiss woke activists posing as staff.

We'll find the other DEI words and hit them, too.
Today it's @uiowa and yesterday it was @UTKnoxville.

University officials literally think parents, students and especially state leaders and lawmakers are stupid.
"We're still going to do all the DEI things."
DEI is destructive and illegal.@KimReynoldsIA @BrennaByrd. . https://t.co/jduRcfkc52
It's incredibly destructive. Which is the purpose of DEI.
DEI was banned in Iowa, but universities just rebrand it as “Civic Engagement” to keep pushing the same agenda. It’s dishonest and divisive. If they won’t follow the law, the Regents and legislature must enforce the ban and clean house. No more games. https://t.co/8nJfJ2djYV
