Is it right to choose people for college admission or jobs or home purchase or promotion based on their race? It's not even legal in the United States to do that, and hasn't been since the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
But prestigious Harvard University was convicted of doing that very thing in 2023, and they're not the only one. Somehow our whole university system got way off track:
"Shielded by a virtuous public image, elite universities have institutionalized discrimination against disfavored racial groups, implemented DEI policies based on racial rewards and penalties, hired and promoted faculty according to skin color rather than merit, and overseen racially segregated student programs, dormitories, and graduation ceremonies."
Now Americans through the recently elected president's administration are trying to bring universities back to American values. It's a fight. Harvard University is front and center.
