So to be clear, the UofA is moving beyond the DEI label and language, not abandoning the ideas entirely.

The University of Alberta has announced plans to move away from its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies, saying it will instead organize similar initiatives under a less “polarizing” acronym.

In an Edmonton Journal op-ed published Jan. 2, president Bill Flanagan said the university will move to a policy of “access, community and belonging” in place of DEI.
