I really like that approach, but it seems we don't hear about this stuff at all. Is there anything your department can do to be a bit more vocal, that not all of these programs are contrary to purely merit based admissions?

I'm not sure what we could do, since most of the DEI programs on campus are of a similar nature. The media just doesn't cover them, because it's controversy and outrage that gets views.
