Tufts to remove mural with only white people ‘to attract a diversity of people’

Murals painted in 1955 are to be removed and hidden away because racist students are upset. From the Tufts press release:

In an open forum last year, students spoke about feeling alienated by the murals and questioned the university’s support for imagery that undermines its values of diversity and inclusion—a response especially important because Alumnae Lounge is a frequent gathering space for awards ceremonies and other events.

“Students have told us that they don’t want to receive awards in Alumnae Lounge because they feel excluded, and that’s important to hear,” said Deborah Kochevar, senior vice president and provost ad interim.

Yes, it’s important to hear so you know which students aren’t there to actually learn anything useful but are merely being coddled.
