A Rutgers professor Stacy Hawkins defended diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) offices on college campuses on Thursday during a panel discussion at Harvard University.
A Rutgers professor defended diversity, equity, and inclusion offices on college campuses on Thursday. Harvard University held a panel featuring scholars and academics to discuss the role DEI bureaucracy plays on college campuses.
While two other panelists slammed DEI efforts during the event, Hawkins was the only panelist to defend DEI imperatives. Gersen countered Hawkins by noting the racial demographic of Harvard’s student population as evidence for progress in diversity in higher education. 'She said that while this increased diversity should encourage ‘friction’ and healthy debate, she found DEI policies have made students more hesitant to freely express themselves in the classroom,' the Crimson reported.
