Penn is set to introduce major changes to its existing nondiscrimination and affirmative action policies.
The changes follow an executive order from 1968 Wharton Graduate and President Donald Trump which mandates that federally funded universities such as Penn terminate DEI programs in violation of federal civil rights laws. In light of the order, Penn will rename the Office of Affirmative Action and Equal Opportunity Programs to the Office of Equal Opportunity Programs and remove the words “diversity” and “affirmative action” from the policies.
A University spokesperson wrote to The Daily Pennsylvanian that Penn is “reviewing websites and programs to ensure they are consistent with our nondiscrimination policies and federal law.”
