Palomar College scraps anti-racism policy: Campus equity faces uncertain future
Palomar College’s board of directors sparked controversy by voting to remove its 2021 anti-racism policy, a move widely criticized by students, faculty, and the community. The decision, justified by legal concerns, reflects a broader national trend of rolling back diversity and inclusion policies under federal pressures. Critics warn the move could undermine campus equity and inclusivity initiatives.
