Carving out Jews as the special exception to the general anti-DEI rules of the federal government makes Jews into a specially protected buffer class, which both engenders resentment from others and enables the government to make us scapegoats if things go bad. It’s Court Jews all over again.
Wait wait wait wait so Columbia MUST create a DEI office for Jewish folks but MAY NOT create a DEI office for anyone else? Am I reading this right?

This is clearly true, but the more I try to understand the how and why of acquiescence, the more class solidarity seems the most likely explanation. When we talk about universities’ agency as “institutions” in this context we are only really talking about Boards of Trustees and Regents.
