Big Business is finally coming to its senses that DEI sends
profits down the drain
That hiring people based on race, gender, creed or sexual
orientation is insane
Rather time to replace the “D” with “M” for meritocracy and
profits will flow
Now with Trump’s planned DOGE for government meritocracy, efficiency
and innovation may run the show
In higher education with its too often curtailment of free
speech and diverse ideas the rule
Even that stranglehold is becoming a disillusioned academic
tool
The University of Austin has shed DEI like a bad dandruff case
To substitute “Merit, Excellence and Intelligence” in its
place
Higher education should be a place where the ability to reason
and think deeply is the rule
Where ideas are not limited to one size fits all but
expanded as required problem tools
Coupled with MEI, in public K-12 schools no child should be
short changed
Access to computers and other learning tools, excellent
teachers, safe schools and nutrition for less fortunate must be arranged
Parents should have the right to be free of geography that chains
their kids in schools that are failing
And the teachers’ unions against school choice and charter
schools must cease their intense railing
Since urban public schools seem to be in a continuing
failing disaster
Time to consider ending the Department of Education to free
the states to the failures master
The University of Austin’s foray into the end of DEI to
replace it with MEI
May now be only a ripple in the Higher Education pond but
its growth should be hard to deny
To soon reach the elites’ ivy covered walls that for
professors near monopolies of liberals rely
We spend far too much money on education for poor results that
should cause us to ape the private sector and MEI apply
