The U of Missouri Plays a Shell Game with DEI, Firing a Single DEI Provost and Assigning All DEI Personel to Other Departments

Missouri is considering joining other states in banning DEI at publicly-funded universities. The Chancellor of Missouri just played a shell game to try to turn the pressure off.

All he did was eliminate one single position, and re-assign his many, many DEI officers to other departments.

I believe the military calls this "malicious compliance." You're not really complying wit the order, you're defying it. But you're pretending to comply enough to avoid a court martial.

Gut. Their. Funding.

Take away the billion dollars.

While other state universities laid off staff when DEI was eliminated, no staff will be eliminated at Missouri other than the vice chancellor position.
University of Missouri President Mun Choi had sleepless nights thinking about losing $1 billion in state funding due to diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
On Tuesday, Choi helped his insomnia by eliminating what the university called the "Inclusion, Diversity and Equity" office. He reassigned programs to the Division of Student Affairs, the Office of the Provost and the Division of Marketing and Communications. Choi estimated the cost savings of the changes to be $6 million.

In other words, he took the DEI officers out of the DEI appointment and just assigned them to other departments.

So he can tell state legislators: What DEI office? We don't have a DEI office. (We merely have DEI officers scattered throughout the university.)

"I always think about our support from the state of Missouri because it's the largest single-source of revenue for the university," Choi told reporters. "So, yes, it does keep me up at night, not only because of DEI legislative mandates but all of our activities."

Choi is bragging that he fake-complied with the law while keeping all the DEI staff:

In an email sent Tuesday to the campus, Choi noted 14 states had bills eliminating DEI become law. While other state universities laid off staff when DEI was eliminated, no staff will be eliminated at Missouri other than the vice chancellor position.
"In the Missouri Legislature, 13 pieces of DEI legislation were introduced during the past two years," Choi wrote. "Our proactive responses played a role in averting the passage of these bills. These responses included the elimination of diversity hiring statements; the ending of race-conscious admissions and scholarships; and ensuring that inclusion means inclusion for all."
...
"Those programs are still there," Choi said. "I would strongly disagree with the characterization that this is drifting away. We're continuing our commitment to ensuring that each of our students we bring into our university is provided the opportunity to succeed. And that's important for me and the University of Missouri."

This will be what many state university systems do in response to anti-DEI legislation.

Update: Should have added this to the last post.

If you missed the update -- this isn't a joke. Google really is returning information about Kamala Harris rallies when you search for Trump rallies.

Scott Adams @ScottAdamsSays Aug 4
Same strategy as the dementia patient candidate.

David Sacks @DavidSacks Aug 3
Democrats have found a powerful new formula for presidential politics that fully exploits their domination of MSM:
— Avoid contentious primaries; let Party elites pick the nominee.
— Take no positions, repudiate entire past in politics. Run on vibes and oppo.
— Stay on-prompter; avoid debates or unscripted appearances.
— Decentralize powers of the presidency to the staff. President’s role becomes largely ceremonial (think: King Charles).
— When polling tanks, swap out figureheads and pretend everything has changed.
If Harris wins, why not The Rock next? Highly viable.

WY was the first state to grant women the right to vote. Utah quickly followed after, and they were the first state that actually had a woman cast a ballot. Beat out WY. That's super nit picky, but we just had a huge celebration in Utah for it not that long ago.

I've seen some videos over the last couple days of roaming bands of young Islamic males attacking random citizens and causing all sort of property damage. The cops aren't do anything to them but they are going after Brits who are pushing back.

I've got a bad feeling they are just a couple steps ahead of us on the mass illegal immigration and replacement program.

I kind of think the analogy works the opposite way... You can't really tell a thing by trying to observe a single electron. Things get super kooky and unpredictable if you try. But study a whole crapload of electrons all going about their business in a single system, and suddenly a coherent picture starts to emerge.
