Duke University Facing Civil Rights Investigations From Education Department
“the Office for Civil Rights revealed that it had launched a second investigation into the school just days after resolving the previous one”
This is due to another program that is allegedly discriminating based on race. How does this keep happening?

Department of Education swamps Duke University with civil rights investigations
Duke University is facing a fresh federal civil rights investigation for a racially exclusive program at its medical school days after resolving a separate civil rights matter over excluding women.
Last week, the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights informed Mark Perry, a senior fellow with the medical watchdog group Do No Harm, that Duke University was no longer excluding men from two programs the school had organized, one for high school girls interested in orthopedic surgery and engineering, and another for female medical students.
But on Tuesday, in response to a complaint from Perry about a program at the Duke University School of Medicine that was reserved for black men, the Office for Civil Rights revealed that it had launched a second investigation into the school just days after resolving the previous one.
Perry and Do No Harm had accused the medical school of violating federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex and race through its Black Men in Medicine initiative.
“In violation of Title VI, non-Black male and non-Black female faculty, trainees, and students in the Schools of Medicine and Nursing (including faculty and students who are white, Asian, Hispanic, Native American, Pacific Islanders, and Middle Eastern/North African) are illegally excluded from the [Black Men in Medicine] program and discriminated against on the basis of their race, color, or national origin,” Perry wrote in his complaint.

Sometimes I get the feeling that cadres of Ralph Wiggum do-gooders are freewheeling out of control, designing programs to “help” this and that “disadvantaged group,” without the slightest idea that there are actual laws to obey and procedures to follow.
Sort of how liberal teachers engaged their classes in “slave redemption” efforts without any clue that they were actually creating a significant new market demand for slaves.
They seem to believe that laws do not apply to them. Why? Because their motives are so pure.
They are holier than you are, and as a result the virtually complete failure of their policies and programs , when examined empirically, has no effect on them.

If Duke University really had anything unique to offer, then wouldn’t Durham, North Carolina be a lot like Paradise? And wouldn’t North Carolina have social-economic and racial/religious conditions that were envied all around the world?
Last I checked, Durham is not a place that most people want to move in to. Unemployment. Drugs. Crime. Etc. If the emperors who reign at Duke had any clothing on, they’d have solved a lot of these problems.
It is remarkable that nobody ever ever ever questions these things.
Whatever happened to
Milstein?
