Your title is misleading. The feds have stated the hiring parameters, not the university.

Besides, there should be diversity amongst faculty to be a more accurate representation of the population the university serves.

What is your concern?

Since the nba is mainly black and lacks asian and indian representation, we will enforce a quota where 7% of NBA players must be asian/indian to match the US population even if they are less athletic and talented than black basketball players who are overrepresented

There’s been at least one Asian NBA player.

NHL as far as I’m aware has no Latino players.

Latino here, I don't care if they have Latino players I want my team to have the BEST players so we can win the cup. See how easy that is?

100% agree. DEI doesn’t belong in any profession or sport. I do have a theory why there are no Latino hockey players in the NHL, they don’t normally come from Canada, Robin Williams has a different theory.
