Activists at Yale Demand Discipline for Anyone Engaging in ‘Oppression’ at Nursing School

These folks are basically saying Yale is a racist school. Maybe the Department of Education should investigate.

The College Fix reports:

Yale activists demand discipline against anyone who engages in ‘oppression’ at nursing schoolAs the fall semester saw a rise in virtual learning amid COVID-19, the Yale School of Nursing saw a rise in racism complaints.A group at Yale called the IDEAS Council, which stands for Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, Action, Solutions, created a seven-page list of demands for Yale and its School of Nursing.Members of the IDEAS Council, according to their website, are made up of students, alumni and faculty and “are champions for DEI within the school, accountable delegates who represent the interests of their constituents, and conduits for relaying information to leadership.”One of their demands calls for the nursing school to “commit to discipline and/or remove faculty, staff, preceptors, guest speakers, and students who engage in racism and other forms of oppression.” The activists also demand that campus leaders remove any nursing school administrator who won’t follow such a protocol.While each of the 20 demands include subheads and bullet points, its authors do not spell out how they define what oppression looks like at the nursing school, which costs nearly $70,000 annually in tuition and fees for the graduate entry program.The IDEAS Council and its faculty representatives did not respond to requests for comment from The College Fix.Unrest at the nursing school took hold in late October after its director for diversity, equity and inclusion resigned, citing an “oppressive status quo.”“Since the murder of George Floyd and the movements of global unrest that have followed, it has become abundantly clear that Yale has always been a dangerous place for black people to learn and work, and an even more dangerous place for us to speak out,” director Raven Rodriguez wrote in a memo regarding her departure.
