A public university in Texas has reworked its diversity, equity and inclusion office ahead of a law that takes effect Jan. 1 banning DEI offices at public universities in the state.

The University of Texas at San Antonio has closed its Office of Inclusive Excellence and is opening the Office of Campus and Community Belonging with the same staff due to the new law, President Taylor Eighmy announced in a recent campuswide email. …

The university’s media relations department did not respond to requests for comment this month from The College Fix asking whether the shift is in some ways a rebrand to skirt the law.

[Come on, man. This gets to one of my main arguments, which is that DEI cannot be deconstructed from Academia until Higher Ed gets defenestrated of its administrative class. The only way to accomplish this is to turn off the money, especially at the federal level, and I mean ALL of it — student loans, grants, scholarships, research funding, the whole works. Let the schools survive on tuition and the restored price signaling that produces. — Ed]
