Alert: Major University Covertly Rebrands DEI Office With Innocuous-Sounding Name
Story by C. Douglas Golden • 3h

When offices of diversity, equity, and inclusion become toxic, what is a major university to do?

Do away with them? Pfft. That's admitting defeat. No, just rebrand it to something that sounds perfectly innocuous. That's the ticket!

Well, it's at least the ticket for the University of Colorado, which has quietly renamed its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion department to the Office of Collaboration — all without changing anything of substance.

Steve McGuire, a fellow in campus freedom for the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, helpfully alerted the denizens of X to the shift in terminology:

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

I have a few suggestions on what to rename their offices ! Most start with mental illness titles.

This report seems to not represent what really happened.

Notice that the mission of the department has been significantly changed before and after.
The article claims which has quietly renamed its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion department to the Office of Collaboration — all without changing anything of substance.
