[quote=Anonymous]In 2023, DEI is much less about race or national origin and more about removing barriers to college for low SES students. So colleges do special out reach and waive fees for FARMs and first Gen kids. They put them in special mentor groups because they are the most likely to drop out. I happen to think eliminating the ability of low SES kids to access college education in a very complex admission and financial aid environment is a bad thing. Wealth inequality is the highest it’s even been in the US and growing. Ask 1789 France what happens when you have a permanent underclass with no real social mobility and a let them eat cake elite class. Ask the Russians in 1918. It never ends well. And it’s kid of gross to eliminate DEI for poor kid whose parents can’t help but keep the legacy and sports set asides for almost exclusively UMC kids (except football and some basketball). [/quote]
