Virginia Commonwealth University and George Mason University decided not to include DEI classes as part of the mandated curriculum for undergraduates.
Two Virginia public universities scrapped plans to require students to complete diversity, equity and inclusion classes in order to graduate after Gov. Glenn Youngkin's recent audit. Virginia Commonwealth University and George Mason University decided not to make DEI-centered courses a requirement for undergraduates this fall, but those classes will still be offered.
The VCU board is made up 16 members, eight of whom are Youngkin appointees. Four seats will open on July 1, giving Youngkin the opportunity to appoint additional VCU board members. The day after VCU’s announcement, more than 100 students walked out of Youngkin’s address at their commencement ceremony, which the Washington Post categorized as 'demonstrating support for Palestinians and protesting some of the Republican’s crusade against efforts to promote racial equity in education.
