In the fullest public accounting of the new Texas law to date, the head of the University of Texas system announced that its nine academic and five health campuses alone had cut 300 full- and part-time positions. Those campuses combined also did away with more than 600 programs related to diversity, equity and inclusion training.

The pendulum is swinging back the other way.

Good. All DEI hires can go back to work for McDonald's. It's where they belong.

No its not. When the majority of staff align with Christian conservatism then itll be shown to be a pendulum, otherwise, this is a 2 steps forward/1 step back victory for the left.
The long game is all that matters and is the only real metric.

What's funny, at least at UT, the departments that had DEI employees tried to just change their job titles and keep them on the payroll, which kind of defeats the purpose of "trimming the fat" of DEI. UT still fired them all. The fired staff and some students that support them are whining that they shouldn't have been let go because they were "complying" with the new law.

WTH?
300 positions?
That's more baggage than a Samsonite factory!

That is fresh ocean air courtesy of Florida.
Glad it’s being utilized and appreciated.

They've been playing it for decades and what we've seen the past few years is them enjoying the fruits of their labors. It's finally come to fruition. The Left in this country has damn near full control over everything that matters.
Texas giving up some DEI shite means nothing.

Learn to take a W when we can. It’s what builds momentum.
