Conservative detractors of the law complained that it was watered down and contained no real enforcement mechanism (and I believed them, and agreed; ref https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/05/whats-the-matter-with-texas.php).

It’s interesting to me that UT, undoubtedly knowing the law was deficient in enforcement mechanisms, canned DEI staff anyway.

That suggests (to me, anyway) that the DEI function is in reality a thorn in the administration’s side and however “woke” these administrators are, they’re A-OK with blaming the law but using it to clean out this dysfunctional DEI nonsense anyway.

I’ll take it!! :-)

That’s a lot of dead wood. No wonder things cost so much.

60? I’m sure they could easily root out 600 and maybe even 6,000.

They are hiding them.

As far as I know, it has never been explained exactly what these 60 DEI employees did each day. They didn’t teach, they didn’t do research, wtf did they do?

These must pretty much be unskilled people, worthy only of canning once their phony jobs were cancelled.

The last line states that at least 40 worked in that department. This smells like fake compost news. There is a paywall so you don’t even know if they are receiving pay.

...adding that funding previously used for DEI will be used for teaching and research.

Using university funding for teaching and research. What a concept! Hopefully, it will catch on.

Those implementing the new law also sent a written warning to Aholes in charge. After the law was passed the Aholes re-named the DIE depts — to duck the law. So, they got a letter telling them that such shenanigans would not cut it and there would be an audit in May.

Sometimes yah just need to smack ‘em upside the head.
