U Arizona DEI Boondoggle Tells Students to 'Live Like a Bug'

The report finds:

  • A D&E course syllabus states that students will learn that “racism is deeply embedded in U.S. history, society, and institutions,” and that “white people hold unearned privilege while people of color have not had equal access to the ‘American Dream.’”
  • Students of this D&E course are explicitly instructed to self-censor in class if others find their views “problematic,” regardless of the merits of their beliefs: “If somebody lets you know something you said is problematic, resist the temptation to become defensive. Instead, apologize, self-reflect, learn, and do better next time.”
  • A course on the science of bugs that fulfills the D&E requirement requires students to experiment with “living like a bug”—including by “walking around with tissue paper ‘wings’”—in order to understand the experience of immigrants, people of a different social class, and other “marginalized” groups.
  • UA fails to provide instruction in American history and civics in its general education curriculum—a blatant violation of the Arizona Board of Regents’ (ABOR) clear directive that all Arizona public universities include these subjects in their general education programs.

That would worry me if I attended U Arizona. Aren't the Left trying to push us all to eat bugs as a replacement for meat? I often say that Woke Will Eat Itself, but I didn't mean it literally
