(The Center Square) – The promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI, on college campuses has become a big focus in academia, but a study says many of the programs are bloated and have a high taxpayer cost.
The Heritage Foundation found that colleges’ vast DEI bureaucracy has little to do with students’ satisfaction with their college.
The study showed the average university has 45.1 people tasked with promoting diversity, equity and inclusion, but some schools have many more.
At the University of Illinois alone, there are 71 DEI personnel, which is four out of every 100 faculty members. At Northwestern University, there are 52 DEI faculty members.
