True, wasn't this move away from meritocracy dictated by the nonsensical critical race theory? Academia and its policies should be driven by science and not feelings. It's a good sign that they turned around on this.

Critical race theory doesn’t dictate any policies. > Academia and its policies should be driven by science and not feelings. All policies are driven by feelings; science can tell you what is, and how to achieve a given goal, but it takes values/preferences – which, ultimately, are feelings – to have goals in the first place.
