Consider it one of the final blasts from the outgoing radicals at Obama Inc. Don't dismiss it as futile though. While Trump's new Secretary should trash every poison pen Dear Colleague letter from Obama Inc, we don't know that she will. The right has a history of letting most things that their leftist predecessors before them did slide, unless there is a pressure group focused on reversing them. And there are plenty of administrators eager for this already who will use this as supporting ammo for their position and get their way no matter what happens once Obama finally leaves office.
King, who will almost certainly lose his job in 58 days, released the letter on Friday along with an 89-page report focused on diversity.
“Institutions can proactively support student success and college completion by” establishing “venues for safe and open dialogue on issues of race and discrimination among students, faculty, staff, and leadership of different backgrounds,” the outgoing education secretary instructs college administrators.
College officials should also train “students, faculty, staff” on “how to support diverse student populations and address the implicit biases we all carry with us,” the education secretary says
This is rather blatantly pushing the panel of microaggressions and white privilege that are at the heart of the left's current wave of diversity training. More blatantly than before. But King has nothing more to worry about at this rate. His political movement lost at the polls. His boss is out. So he can fire his final rounds at vulnerable students and do more ideological violence to the education system.
