Tulane to require new students study racial diversity as part of undergrad curriculum

NEW ORLEANS, (AP) - Tulane University is requiring that all new students study racial diversity as part of the school's undergraduate curriculum.
The New Orleans Advocate reports the school announced the requirement on Wednesday.
Students will also have to take another class on global perspectives.
Both classes will be required for new students to graduate.
The class requirements come after several incidents where minority students complained of harassment by white students.
In 2015, some students posted racist comments on an anonymous social media app. After that, the university's president convened a commission on race and university values. It was the commission that recommended the changes.
Students will have to complete the coursework by the end of their sophomore year.

I wonder what you learn in a class like this.

It took them 3 years to come up with that?
It always cracks me up how these liberal colleges are always the ones who seem to have the most racial/gender "problems" on campus

Lots of racist northerners at Tulane.

Hard to believe a bunch of rich white yankee ivy league rejects were raised to be racially illiterate.

They spent the first 2 years trying to produce coke in something other than white.

frick. That.

How can they "require" it? That is totally dumb and sounds like a BS class like Freshman Orientation that counts for 1 credit

White men bad
Black folks can't be questioned
Women are brave and powerful unless they vote R

They can get a PhD in race relations by walking up Carrollton and taking a left into hollygrove day or night. Crash course

Minorities whining about something. Imagine that.

I don't understand this. This new requirement will not change the mindset of the people who made the racist posts, and will just further divide everyone else. They are trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist.

Some of the most obnoxious, racist folks I've ever met were Tulane students from places like Boston and Chicago.
