A California State University Goes Even More Woke

The state universities in California have been in the grip of leftist zealotry for decades, but at San Jose State, recent changes at the top indicate that the school is going still further into wokeness.

In today’s Martin Center article, Professor Elizabeth Weiss explains what is happening at SJSU.

She begins, “Since 2004, San José State University (SJSU) has changed presidents nine times. Although each of these university heads was probably politically correct, the new president, Dr. Cynthia Teniente-Matson, is far more ideologically driven and intends to march us all, lockstep, into a future of diversity, equity, and inclusion. This shift includes mandatory language and behaviors that together abandon the previous mission of SJSU.”

How so? The school’s new president is dedicated to pushing the DEI agenda to the maximum.

Weiss continues, “Redefining SJSU from an educational institute to a social justice re-education camp will not lessen student or faculty fear of retaliation. And that is precisely what Teniente-Matson proposes to do.”

Students should avoid SJSU if they want an education, not indoctrination.
