Liberals can't stand it when their programs are exposed to public scrutiny. DEI in medicine sounds like a bad idea to most

Quote:
The University of California, Los Angeles medical school is launching a probe of its controversial "health equity" classand warning whistleblowers they could be punished if any more information leaks about it.

The dean of the medical school, Steven Dubinett, announced Friday that his office had formed a task force to review all first-year courses, including "Structural Racism and Health Equity," after the Washington Free Beacon published materials from the mandatory class. But the school isn't happy about having its hand forced.

In an email to students and faculty, Dubinett implied that the leaks were an "attempt to intimidate" the medical school and hinted that future leakers could face disciplineespecially if they record lectures.

"Recording class sessions is not permitted without express consent from the instructor and class participants," Dubinett wrote. That warning appears to be a reference to an earlier incident in which a guest lecturer, Lisa Gray Garcia, led the required course in chants of "Free, Free Palestine" as well as a prayer to "Mamma Earth," part of which was caught on tape and thrust the course into the national spotlight.

Whistleblowers don't have legal protection? Seems like a blatant abuse by the UC system

Are there any medical schools left in the nation run by competent medical profs that don't hate white people? That are rigorous and accept/pass based on merit and not skin color?

There is an huge opportunity here for conservatives.

My vet can diagnose our horses, dogs, cats that can not speak to him of what hurts and how they feel. I can tell my doctor lots of info and he still can't get it right sometimes.

A&M had a bunch of DEI stuff during our conferences in 2020 and since then it has dropped dramatically. I'm not on the admissions committee just a clinical director but I don't see any significant DEI at this time at the A&M medical school just merit/performance based grading.

Imagine cracking down on legitimate whistleblowers and still thinking you're the good guys.

My Uncle was Ag teacher… most folks came to him instead of long drive into town for expensive vet.

Helped an ag prof neuter his new batch of kittens one time. He complained the whole time how much he could be making while doing this as a vet.

There is absolutely nothing that shouldn't be made public that is being taught any any school(kindergarten through Grad school)
This is totally an abuse of the system and those professors/administrators advocating for suppression should be fired immediately.

In this case the adage Democracy dies in darkness is true.

warning whistleblowers

The whole idea behind a whistleblower is to seek protection. A warning would PROVE they need it.

This "investigation" has nothing to do with course content and everything to do with whistleblowers.

Agreed. The fact that any school would feel comfortable intimidating its faculty and students in not being open about what is getting taught is pretty scary.

If any school takes taxpayer funding in any way shape or form, they should have zero rights to privacy of anything being taught or required of the faculty or students of that school.

Also, conservative doctors need to get serious about going to war against progressives ruining their profession. Ignoring the complete take over of their profession by insane activists is not turning out that well.

You won't be able to afford that either.

Private equity is buying all the local vets and raising the prices 200-300% or more

10 years ago I could get a heart worm text for 10-15 bucks

Last time I went vet wanted me to pay 75 or they wouldn't prescribe the heart worm medicine

Wait. So invading a campus, occupying and vandalizing buildings, and disruption of the ability to hold class are all protected speech in the opinion of these folks; BUT, disclosing what is actually taught by these same individuals IN the classroom is worthy of investigation and severe discipline?

Let's watch as our university faculty's worldview collapses in on itself.
