College that's spent $250m on DEI is using new word to evade Trump ban
Story by Sophie Gable For Dailymail.Com • 13h

The University of Michigan's Flint campus is fighting back against the Trump Administration's efforts to dismantle diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.

The university has spent $250million on their trailblazer in DEI strategies, but threats to roll back federal funding prompted President Santa Ono to terminate the plan on Thursday.
 
However, the university's Flint campus issued a letter to the community announcing that they wouldn't be eliminating their DEI office, but would instead reintroduce the program under a new name.

Flint's Office of DEI is now operating as the Wolverine Hub of Opportunity, Persistence, and Excellence, also referred to as HOPE.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
