Reading this thread I went snooping on my Alma Mater's website and found this:
Vision
The Women’s and Diversity Center seeks to increase awareness, allyship, and action at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University – Prescott. The Women’s and Diversity Center strives to foster the campus’ engagement with and understanding of critical issues, including bias, power, and privilege.

We aim to offer students, faculty, and staff the skills, training, and space for dialogue to serve as allies for one another on the path to a socially just and equitable society. The Women’s and Diversity Center ultimately wants to empower the campus community to take action on the issues that matter to them, guided by a social justice framework.
Our Mission:

Mind you this is a small technical school that specializes in Aviation and Engineering with other specialties such as business and security thrown in. Not exactly your typical bastion of liberal ideals. This is an infection that needs to be contained before it spreads out of control.

No doubt the SJW’s are going for the hard sciences and engineering, with the intention of destroying the rigor of those fields. I just read something about Boeing’s diversity agenda, and in light of their recent FUBAR’s the diversity priority is backasswards.
