U-M dismantles DEI program, promising campus will remain inclusive

U-M's president announced the news today in a statement posted on the school’s website. The DEI cut marks a significant shift for the school, given its longstanding commitment to and advocacy of progressive values. It's unclear how many jobs and people will be affected overall. FOX 2 reached out to the provost’s office for more information, but a media relations staff member directed us back to the statement on their website, telling us that’s all they’re releasing at this time. On campus, reactions are mixed, with some students saying they’ve been anticipating this decision and others fearing what’s next.
