18 million a year in salaries paid to an army of diversity bureaucrats.
142 people for a single college is ridiculous:

142 people for the world would be ridiculous.

$380,000/year for the Vice Provost of Equity and Inclusion?

What a boondoggle. How do I get on that gravy train?

All you gotta do is be black and have an "In" with whoever is in charge.

That does not sound realistic. How many people work there in total?

After a quick google search: 6,200 faculty members and roughly 38,000 employees.
Oh. So, 142 people doing anything isn't that much.

However, if 142 people are solely doing DEI, then that is an amazing amount. I would presume they do other things as well, and that DEI is only part of their job.
