DEI faces an uphill battle on the University of Chicago’s cross country team.
The team’s “DEI coordinators” have reportedly struggled to get the team interested in reading books about racism or supporting efforts to aid illegal immigrants, according to The Chicago Maroon.
Runner Mónica House lamented how male runners, on their own, will run near Parkway Gardens Apartment Homes, an apartment complex that has had crime issues.
House is involved with other activism work, including writing a paper on abortion following the reversal of Roe v. Wade. “Passionate about the intersection of social justice and research,” according to her LinkedIn, House is in the “Institute of Politics’ Leaders of Color” and the “Committee of Marginalized Student Affairs.”
