By The Gazette Editorial board, COMMENTARY
Colorado’s most prominent higher-ed institution, the University of Colorado system, has discreetly changed the name of the office that oversees its controversial “diversity, equity and inclusion” programs — i.e., institutionalized discrimination.
It’s as if CU wanted the change to fly under the radar. The new name, the Office of Collaboration, is vague enough to escape notice. And it wasn’t publicized through an official announcement; it was outed on X by a user who presumably didn’t speak for the CU system.
When The Gazette pressed CU’s front office for details, a spokesperson referred our news staffer to a page on the university’s website that the spokesperson said was “all the comment we’ll be making on this at this time.” The webpage sheds little light on the rebranding.
