(Campus Reform) In an effort to promote racial tolerance, Oregon State University is hosting two "social justice retreats" this weekend—one for white students, and another for students of color.
According to The Daily Caller, both retreats will take place from Friday to Sunday, during which time white attendees will learn about concepts such as "white privilege," "microaggressions," and "institutional racism," while the retreat for non-white students will also focus on "[empowering] students of color."
OSU's Office of Diversity and Cultural Engagement, which is sponsoring the retreats, explains on its website that the retreats are intended "to promote a campus dialogue about race and racism," as well as to help the school community "engage in the active exploration of the concept of race and how race impacts our lived experiences and interactions."
