Youngkin efforts lead slew of VA colleges to nix DEI, as Hokie alums reportedly push back FIRST ON FOX: Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin on Monday praised the domino effect of Virginia colleges nixing their diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) departments and initiatives, just weeks after President Donald Trump issued a nationwide order to that effect. "Discriminatory DEI policies are being dismantled across Virginia's colleges and universities," Youngkin told Fox News Digital. "This is a win for common sense, for civil rights, and for students and faculty at some of the world's most premier institutions of higher learning we proudly have in Virginia. I am pleased our college and university boards continue to prioritize merit-based opportunity over race-based discrimination."
The first "glorious" Recession in history ? What college would have accepted Trump himself if it was merit based ?
