(THE COLLEGE FIX) – California Community Colleges has asked for comments on a plan to require professors and other employees to exhibit aptitude in skills related to “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility.”
The comment period for the proposal is open until the end of April. The proposed regulation would require evaluations to consider an employee’s “proficiency in diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA)-related competencies that enable work with diverse communities.”
It would also weigh these competencies and “anti-racist principles” when making tenure decisions.
