Of course it's all due to 'racism.'

Virginia Military Institute will make changes to its student-run honor court to make the system fairer to cadets accused of lying, cheating, stealing or other transgressions that can lead to expulsion.

VMI detailed the reforms in a progress report Friday in response to a state-ordered investigation into racism and sexism at the nation’s oldest state-supported military college.

The 70-page report, which the college gave to General Assembly members and the Virginia secretary of education, describes initiatives approved, enacted or begun last year, including mandatory diversity, equity, and inclusion training for administrators and members of VMI’s Board of Visitors, and changes to the Lexington school’s one-strike-and-you’re-out honor court system

Do the black cadets get expelled "at disproportionate rates" because they're black?

Or do they get expelled more because they cheat disproportionately more?

Racist! This tells the world VMI considers blacks inferior and must be 'helped' to succeed.

That question would be classified racist by everyone that cannot think of an answer that avoids the truth.

And do they cheat more because letting Minorities in the school with lower score requirements is standard just to pass ?

Does the school need to dumb down the curriculum so "No Cadet left behind"?

The student juries will expand in size and guilty verdicts will require nine out of 11 jury votes instead of five of seven votes.
LOL. The horror of it all I tell you.

Geezus, right wingers crack me up.

"Mandatory diversity"?
'Fairer' = 'systemic racism'

Considering the source!!!!!!

Being blacks only make up about 13% of our population, there should only 13% should be allowed to attend at any given time.

I note no where I read mentioned their grades. Odd!

I'd like to see their high school records.
