    The West Point Office of “Diversity, Inclusion and Equal Opportunity” is now called the “Office of Engagement and Retention”.

    It’s a slightly positive sign the military and service academies are getting the heat from the public about DEI being toxic and causing division, while Congress works to remove the salaries of DEI officers in DOD.

    But what do these offices do to get around this? Change their names and titles. Case in point: “We sneakily changed their title so it doesn’t sound as diversity-oriented, even though it is.”–

    On the West Point page, there’s not much change beyond the title:

    Mission: The Office of Engagement and Retention synchronizes and leverages academy engagement and retention efforts that focus on attracting, hiring, retaining, and developing an inclusive and cohesive staff, faculty, and Corps of Cadets; and engages West Point organizations, DoD, Army partners, and the external community in support of West Point’s mission to build, educate, train, and inspire leaders of character serving in our culturally diverse Army.

    Vision: The United States Military Academy is recognized by the Army and the nation as the preeminent leader development and academic institution committed to inclusive principles and practices.

    They still run the Annual Diversity and Inclusion Leadership Conference, which is scheduled to be held 29-30 October 2024. Event Page

    And apparently the same person who was in charge of the previous DEI office is still in charge of this newly-named office.

    But it’s a small step in recognizing the common saying of DEI means Didn’t Earn It.

    Here’s what happened at last year’s DEI conference:
