Ithaca College is asking faculty members to register their race in an official database, according to recently revealed human resources documents from the school.
Christopher Rufo posted the documents to social media noting that administrators at the college had recently pledged to "dismantle racist systems and white supremacy culture embedded in policy, pedagogy, and person at Ithaca College."
According to the letter from the school’s HR department, in their efforts to become “a more diverse and inclusive institution” they “want to have a more complete understanding of our current demographic profiles that we can track our progress toward one part of that goal diversifying our faculty.”
