Donors Fleeing University of Oklahoma Over School’s Embrace of DEI Policies

Donors Fleeing University of Oklahoma Over School’s Embrace of DEI Policies

“I think is better named DIE for DEI because I think that’s what’s going to happen because of it.”

This is how you hit a university where it hurts. Fundraising is extremely important to them.

FOX News reports:

Donors flee from ‘very disturbed’ university in Oklahoma amid radical DEI agenda: ‘Better named DIE’

University of Oklahoma donors have ceased their payments to the institution citing far-left biases and agendas, according to multiple contributors who spoke with Fox News Digital.

“I’m not happy with where they’re headed,” a neurosurgeon named Christopher Boxell said about the university’s medical school. “The diversity, equity and inclusion [agenda] I think is better named DIE for DEI because I think that’s what’s going to happen because of it.”

The university medical school created a “diversity alliance” to ensure equity was incorporated at every level and aspect of the institution.

“We all should be looking at his best qualified. I don’t care which race they’re from. If they’re best qualified, that’s who should be there,” he said. “Do you want that person who is at the top of the class or do you want the person at the bottom of the class? A lot of [patients] don’t ever ask those questions. They say, well, they graduated medical school, they’re a doctor.”

Dr. Boxell was concerned that the medical school at the university has strayed from picking the best and brightest to incorporating woke agenda into its recruitment and how that would impact patient care down the line.

“I was really very disturbed,” the doctor, who said he donated about $250,000 to Oklahoma University and its medical school, added.

Dr. Boxell also took issue with the university using its funds for a drag queen event, a sentiment shared by another donor who spoke with Fox News. The university paid $18,000 to host its annual drag show, which a GOP lawmaker said showed a “perverted agenda.”

For almost any American high school graduate, if you have what it takes to get accepted for admission to University of Oklahoma or any other American university , the worst thing you could do for your future would be to enroll at University of Oklahoma or any other American university.

Don’t agree?
Don’t have to.

The evidence is all around you.
Deal with it.

“Hi, everybody!”

Go “woke”, get broke/become toxic smoke.

I donate directly to Gibsons these days, and I get cookies in return. Oberlin never sent me any cookies. 🙁
