America’s university campuses are slowly phasing out their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs due to widespread and growing disapproval of its anti-white agenda.
MIT and Harvard University have both publicly abandoned their requirement that all job applicants submit “diversity statements” as part of their job applications. The New York Times reported on this with the headline: “The End for Mandatory DEI Statements.”
“The switch has flipped as of now,” commented Jeffrey S. Flier, Harvard Medical School’s former dean.
“I think the large, silent majority of faculty who question the implementation of these programs and, in particular, these diversity statements – these people are being heard.”
The first education system in the country to require diversity statements was the University of California (UC) system, which implemented them about 10 years ago. Supporters of the requirement say it is necessary to build a “welcoming environment for a diverse student population,” but critics say it shames and promotes hate against white people.
For now, the UC system appears to be sticking with its diversity statement requirement, but faculty at Harvard and MIT feel differently about the matter.

Perhaps the biggest shift away from anti-white DEI is taking place in Republican-led, or “red,” states where, in some cases, entire DEI departments are being dismantled and their employees fired.

At The University of Texas – Austin, for instance, 40 people lost their jobs after the school’s DEI office was shuttered by the state. A similar situation occurred at the University of Florida where 13 school administrators were fired in response to a statewide DEI ban.
As promising as this all might seem, abolishing diversity statements is not the same thing as abolishing the diversity cult behind it. Anti-white hate is rampant throughout academia, and not just in DEI programs. Entire curriculums are, in some cases, dedicated to dismantling “whiteness” and replacing it with non-whiteness, whatever that even means.
“The triumphalism over vanishing diversity statements operates on the assumption that said statements are a primary driver of anti-white and anti-male discrimination in academia,” reports Revolver.news. In reality, though, these statements are simply the product of a DEI-obsessed culture that exists on a deeper level.”
“Mandatory statements during the hiring process make it easier and smoother to reject white male applicants, but the intent to reject them as often as possible was there long before. This discriminatory intent means that DEI (or woke, or race communist, pick your term of choice) priorities now pervade almost every aspect of the academic sausage-making process – to a degree that would shock most Americans.”
Unless something changes and soon, American academia is as good as dead. At best, even the “top” colleges and universities that embrace and push DEI will be mediocre. At worst, they will remain a laughingstock where students learn go to “learn” about how “racist” white people are.
Another problem is that some schools are simply renaming and rebranding their DEI programs to evade disapproval and bans. One academic admitted that between 2020 and 2023, upwards of 90 percent of faculty hires were done through a DEI program that had been renamed.
For example, in Nov. 2022, I asked our Dean at a faculty senate meeting what fraction of hires in the last 2-3 years were from FDAP (i.e. the Faculty Diversity Action Plan, our DEI hiring program, which has since been rebranded). His answer: over 90%. From the public minutes: 2/ pic.twitter.com/h5p00Gsnbg
