I’m A Georgetown Student. Here’s How My University Hides Its Illegal DEI Agenda

President Donald Trump boasts that his administration “ended DEI in America.” However, on closer inspection, DEI and Affirmative Action policies are alive and well at America’s elite universities. In the face of national pressure and threats of investigation from the Trump administration, our nation’s most prestigious universities have disguised and hidden their DEI initiatives while preserving their corrosive mission.

Georgetown University provides a stark example of a deeply troubling pattern. Weeks ago, the university renamed its Office of Institutional Diversity, Equity, and Affirmative Action to the Office for Equal Opportunity Compliance. This rebranded DEI hub emphasized its role in facilitating “non-discrimination” and “equal opportunity.” This shift also aims to put the office more in line with the language of the well-established Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, founded in 1964 to enforce the Civil Rights Act, and away from the charged euphemisms of Critical Race Theory. Georgetown released a lengthy new statement explaining that while it remained committed to DEI, it would no longer “give preferences in admissions or employment in ways that violate the law.” (RELATED: Clock Ticking On Trump’s War Against Liberal Education........
