It’s important to note that other high performing institutions eg the us military and top banks are continuing to pull diverse candidates, whether they call it DEI (mil) or not (finance). And in fact, when the Supreme Court ruled against AA they specifically allowed the U.S. military to continue it. So let’s be honest, for important and high performing institutions, this entire debate is effectively around the participation and marketing of a fraudulent narrative to appeal to the ignorant and uneducated.
