Arrr! CBS News' "60 Minutes" be settin' sail on the MEI treasure hunt fer brains at the University of Austin! Them landlubber leaders be claimin' it brings a fine assortment of thoughts, like a jolly crew of misfits on a ship, ready to parley 'n' debate!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round as I spin ye a yarn 'bout a curious place in the wilds of Texas, known as the University of Austin (UATX). This fine institution be sailin' the seas o' higher learnin' with a motto as bold as a captain's boast: "Mind over matter!" Aye, they be turnin' their backs on the usual DEI rigmarole in favor of a new creed called MEI—merit, excellence, and intelligence!With the salty wind at their backs, UATX be on a quest to find the sharpest minds, disregarding trifles like race, gender, and all that deck-swabbin' nonsense. President Pano Kanelos declares, "We be interested only in the mind!" And so, the school be offerin' “forbidden courses” that be ticklin' the fancy of those who dare to think deeply!
Meanwhile, other universities, like the University of Florida, be tossin' their DEI policies overboard, claimin' compliance with state laws. Critics be grumblin’ that while MEI be fine for some, it may not lead to a jolly diverse crew aboard this ship of academia.
But fret not, for UATX’s founders be seekin' talent not just in skin hue but in intellectual depth! So hoist the sails, me mateys, as the winds of change blow across the campus. Free speech be the treasure they seek, and education be the compass guiding 'em through rough waters!
