Only Government Approved Thoughts are Allowed
The University of California, Los Angeles faculty has approved a new policy that requires most future undergraduates to take a course on diversity.
The university announced late Friday that the faculty voted for the requirement by a large margin, ending an effort that began two decades ago and was defeated three times before.
UCLA Chancellor Gene Block says in a statement that he’s pleased with the outcome because he thinks the course will help prepare students to live and work in a multicultural society.
Opponents have said students were overburdened with other requirements and that the budget-strapped university couldn’t afford extra classes.
The Los Angeles Times reports most other UC campuses already require diversity courses.
