The University of Colorado announced Friday that Sallye McKee will become the first vice chancellor for diversity, equity and community engagement.

"I want students to say, 'Because I was at CU-Boulder, I'm able to live and work better as a leader in a global society,'" McKee said.

The new position elevates the dialogue about diversity to the chancellor's cabinet.

This nonsense and the Ethnics Studies Department ...

.

[Mr. K]

It must be so nice to have a job where you ‘increase awareness’ and ‘elevate dialogue’

Very productive...

[Roccus]

“Make work.”

[Lancey Howard]

It seems the University of Colorado has absolutely no concern for its reputation.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Consciousness raising, straight out of the Communist Handbook.

[Bob Mc]

."...the first vice chancellor for diversity, equity and community engagement."

Classic example of liberal speak nonsense. Shear idiocy.

[Signalman]

“Diversity is Perversity.”

[george76]

CU is just maintaining its reputation ?

[teawithmisswilliams]

"...first vice chancellor for diversity, equity and community engagement."

In other words, more divisiveness, conflict and peecee coercion are coming, funded by Colorado taxpayers.

[george76]

It did not work out so well with Ward, now they are trying a different tack.

[george76]

Another waste of taxpayer’s and parent’s money ?

[hometoroost]

Exhibit A in America’s slide toward third world status. The death of education in general and higher education in particular.

[DPMD]

Next, we must have an assistant chancellor for Carbon Neutrality, Climate Change and Global Warming. Maybe the Vice Chancellor for Laundry and Morale can piggyback the duties.

[george76]

get fitted for burkahs now and beat the rush.

I borrowed this from you :

give illegal immigrants plenty of benefits that we don’t give legal residents

[Morgan in Denver]

Head of diversity?

This really is silly. These liberals only do such things to make them feel better about themselves. I doubt any of this has any real impact on education or how people feel about themselves. No wonder people look at CU Boulder and laugh.

[Sonora]

True - I wonder how a performance appraisal would be done on this person.

[george76]

CU also wasted their student fee money by over paying Kofi for his short speech recently too.

The engineering, computer, medical schools... are apparently still good, but what is this new president thinking ?

[cgbg]

The legislature should send this university a message even the CU idiots can understand--a major slash in their budget.

[Regulator]

a leader in a global society

Gee, I thought they were supposed to be leaders in American society.
