November 26, 2024 - 06:03
Conservative activist Christopher Rufo will propose defunding universities that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) during a meeting with President Trump's team. Rufo's plan aims to challenge the current educational framework that he believes prioritizes DEI initiatives over academic excellence. The proposal is part of a broader agenda to reshape higher education in the United States, focusing on accountability and transparency in university funding. Rufo's efforts reflect ongoing debates about the role of DEI in education and its impact on student learning and institutional priorities.
