Just a reminder that American higher "education" is very often a repulsive cesspool of identity politics and reprehensible discrimination:

A University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire staff member sued her employer over being ousted from a position in a campus diversity office allegedly for being "White."

The lawsuit alleges that when Rochelle Hoffman was promoted to UW-Eau Claire's interim director of the campus's Multicultural Student Services office, the school's former Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion and Student Affairs Olga Diaz was told by students that a White woman was not fit to preside over a position intended to serve students of color.

Among the remarks by the students included: "You hired a white woman as the Interim Director?" and "Do you personally feel white staff can do as effective a job as a person of color, within a space for people of color?"

The suit alleges that faculty and staff were also part of the hostility campaign against Hoffman, with the filing arguing that it was "exclusively Hoffman's identity as white that was the issue; criticism was about her race and color, not her qualifications."

And I mean, on the one hand I feel for her. That's no fun. Unjust and unfair. On the other hand I gotta say:

Right? I mean this is campus diversity politics! They're among the most ruthless and uncompromising left-wing politics in the world. It's been like this for decades at this point. What exactly did she think was going to happen?

Hopefully she wins her lawsuit on the merits. And hopefully she learns something in the process!
