Now that’s what I call social justice.
The College Fix reports:
Indiana University president reported to her own bias teamWhile Indiana University defends its bias response team in federal court, its own president has been the subject of two complaints according to records obtained by The College Fix.Two people reported President Pamela Whitten through the Bloomington university’s “Bias Incident Reporting” form, according to reports obtained via a public records request. The Fix obtained reports for the most recent 2023-24 school year.Someone complained that President Whitten (pictured) did not properly “recognize Hispanic [Heritage] Month.”Another person said Whitten “disrupted peaceful protesters with armored police officers.” This likely refers to when police broke up a pro-Palestine protest in April 2024.Indiana University’s media relations team has not responded to two email inquiries and a voicemail left by The Fix within the past month. The Fix asked if the school investigated the complaints, the purpose of the bias team, how it operates, and potential consequences for being reported.IU says the bias incident reporting system does not “impinge on free speech” or “take disciplinary action.”However, a legal group challenging the bias reporting system said there have been consequences for even vague accusations.Speech First is currently suing the university in federal court for its bias response team. The group alleged a student “was overlooked for promotion at their place of work on campus because of a Bias Incident Report on their record,” as previously reported by The College Fix. “That supposed report stated they had merely said something offensive.”
