Brown University plans to spend $100m to improve race relations on campus
Brown University plans to spend $100m over the next decade, in order to address diversity and racism on the campus.
Brown president Christina Paxson unveiled the 19-page draft action plan on Friday, and thanked students who have called attention in recent months to issues of injustice at the Ivy League school.
The Providence Journal reported that the plan outlined steps to create a “just and inclusive campus community”. That included ways to increase Brown’s racial and ethnic diversity and add race and ethnicity to teaching and research topics.
Earlier this month, about 35 graduate students representing several student organizations demanded Brown administrators increase efforts to improve race relations. Their statement came after a visiting Dartmouth College student was detained while attending a conference for Latino Ivy League students.

How much will they raise their over-inflated tuition to cover THAT expense?!?!
Is there a limit on how much they can charge and still attract students……? Are they THAT dumb?!?!
(Rhetorical questions; I know the lefties love Brown….)
Maybe they should make BU all brown and see how that works out for them?
I really don’t care. I don’t know who does. If all the $70,000 a year Ivies want to devolve into glint eyed political re education camps that churn out zombies, so what? What other life skills could they possibly attain if they’re headed for anything outside of a life in academia anyway. When all they produce are protesters and gender studies majors, the only thing they’re capable of doing is getting doctorates to teach the very same thing to a new generation of idiots.
I am an alum and have two children who are computer engineers or studying to be. I watch all the protesters and the sense I get is that too many of them were admitted under a lower standard than my kids or the Asian students, while my kids would eat their lunch academically. As a result they tend toward the soft subjects where they can at least pass. But I think at some level they know they are not competitive, even though all their lives they have been told how “special” they are. So protesting against all the other students who are hard-working and successful is all they have to show how powerful they are and to feed their over-inflated egos. This is what happens when mediocrity meets indoctrination.
Oh gee, catering to the pathetic, little thin skinned snowflakes. Brown would be better served by admitting more mature students to the campus instead of making allowances for whiny people who have framed every slight to their tender beings as a racial problem.
I’ve got an idea that will improve racial relations far more than whatever sinkhole BU plans on flushing that money down. 2,000 scholarships at $50,000 each for minority students who are willing to take STEM majors and actually study instead of the ‘studies’ majors who are doing all of the protesting.
