[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Social justice should encourage open communication not shut it down. I worry that GDS has turned my kid into a quasi republican because he is completely sick of the DEI focus. He has no interest in applying to SLACs next year as he worries they may have a similar environment. At the moment, he wants to go to a large public university like Michigan or UVA or UCLA. [/quote] Yes. Identical here. Had one graduate in last couple of years and that kid has gone fully anti-woke (if that's a term) and in my case, not quasi republican but fully. Kid to this day blames the idea suffocation at GDS 2021-2022 as the main reason his viewpoints changed. Ended up at a great larger college and refused to apply to any SLACs - which would have been a great fit I think - because kid equated SLACs as being "GDS 13th grade" - their words, not mine. And have another one a year or two away from college process also at GDS and is saying the same things. And this kid says their friends all mostly feel the same way. I know some despise the framing of "our kids are backlashing against the DEI you are ramming down their throats" but honestly it seems so true in my little sample.[/quote]
