Funny that these departments are so very important, according to you, yet nobody knows what they do. You’ve highlighted the problem. What value do they add?


Perhaps you don't know what they do, and that is my point.


Your point is weak because everyone who is familiar with these departments know they are talentless paper pushers. Your head must be next on the chopping block.


You previously said nobody knows what they do. Now suddenly everyone familiar with them knows they are paper pushers? Which is it?


Paper pushers do nothing, that's why it's called paper pushing. They add no discernible value. The way to justify your existence isn't to say at least you don't suck as much as those other guys (golf).


You said nobody knows what they do, so how do you know that they do nothing?


Even if we haven’t dealt with college DEI staff, we’ve seen what they do in government or private businesses. And it’s ridiculous. Emails wishing everyone Happy Samoan New Year & inviting everybody to a workshop on how to help your confused 3rd grader find their true self.

There are already tons of college offices filled with counselors & facilitators of all types waiting to help people with every imaginable problem.


Why not just delete the email and not attend the workshop? Why is that programming a problem?


Because they buy the materials for those workshops or they bring in third parties to teach those workshops. Either way, it's a massive waste of money


Who buys the materials? Are you this concerned about the cost of office parties, retreats, conferences?


Instead of pointing out all the good and valuable things these folks do you instead engage in "whataboutism" which speaks for itself. They are nonessential to day to day business. Do you think there is no cost benefit analysis when making business decisions?


Are you unable to answer my question? Who exactly buys these supposed materials? Why is this cost unacceptable but other non-essential expenses are fine?


No, you answer the question. What valuable measurable service to these people provide?


Let us know when you are prepared to answer the question.


I’m not the PP but of the two questions, the question of what valuable measurable service DEI brings is obviously a reasonable one. It’s quite telling that you can’t answer it.


It's quite telling that if you don't understand, maybe we do need DEI services.


We can't tell you what we do or why the company should keep us around but let's have another workshop so we appear busy and useful. Sounds about right.


Have you ever tried to understand?

Where did I say they are valuable?

Sorry but it's DEI departments on the chopping block. The onus on them is to justify their existence, which should be easy to do if they are as valuable as you claim.

If they had a point but it's often a snooze fest distracting from more important things that have to get done. Again, why are you asking everyone to justify cutting departments that are already on their way out? The writing is on the wall. People like you have failed to earn your keep and demonstrate your value to organizations.

That’s fine too. They are a vanishingly small percentage of the budget compared to the DEI apparatus, however, so the cost savings is not as great.


No. Not even a little bit fine! You are so opposed to DEI that you are also willing to neglect the spiritual growth of our young???

Now THAT says a lot

Are you completely unaware of the growing trend of cutting DEI programs? You seem to be the last to know that this is already well underway.

This is actually true, because DEI makes the workplace hostile, in many cases.


I agree. They implement policies that are only established to instill anger and confusion. They do NOT, in fact, help with issues in enrollment.


The entire premise is tearing down some groups to prop up others. It's the antithesis on inclusion.


Source?

Perhaps you don't know what they do, and that is my point.


Your point is weak because everyone who is familiar with these departments know they are talentless paper pushers. Your head must be next on the chopping block.


You previously said nobody knows what they do. Now suddenly everyone familiar with them knows they are paper pushers? Which is it?


Paper pushers do nothing, that's why it's called paper pushing. They add no discernible value. The way to justify your existence isn't to say at least you don't suck as much as those other guys (golf).


You said nobody knows what they do, so how do you know that they do nothing?


Even if we haven’t dealt with college DEI staff, we’ve seen what they do in government or private businesses. And it’s ridiculous. Emails wishing everyone Happy Samoan New Year & inviting everybody to a workshop on how to help your confused 3rd grader find their true self.

There are already tons of college offices filled with counselors & facilitators of all types waiting to help people with every imaginable problem.


Why not just delete the email and not attend the workshop? Why is that programming a problem?


The Chief DEI Officer has arrived.


Usually if folks have a rebuttal they don’t resort to sarcasm.
