Ithaca College scrubs minorities-only pre-med program after complaint

Ithaca College officials removed information on an event geared toward “BIPOC [Black, Indigenous and People of Color] middle and high school students interested in a career in medicine,” just one day after being informed of a federal complaint filed against the school.

“If you know any students who identify as BIPOC in grades 6-12 in the Ithaca Community, we invite them to sign up at the link below,” the university news release announced.

The Project Access physician assistant program, scheduled for October 8, constituted “illegal race-based discrimination in violation of Title VI [of the 1964 Civil Rights Act],” University of Michigan Flint professor emeritus Mark Perry alleged in a complaint to the federal Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights.
