University of Oregon Subjects Faculty to DEI Commitment Test before Hiring and Promotions

The University of Oregon is imposing a DEI mandate on current and prospective faculty requiring them to submit statements in which they are expected to showcase their commitment to rectifying systemic disadvantages facing minority students in their research, teaching, and service.

Faculty applicants have the option of either discussing their past contributions to DEI in previous professional capacities or writing a DEI statement pledging to take certain action once hired by the school.
