No longer pretending to be a credible academic project.

This year, we appear to be winning all over the place.

In a massively symbolic win, the University of Colorado’s Colorado Springs campus has made the executive decision to no longer be involved with the White Privilege Conference.

Though the language used to describe the decision is worded in a snakelike way, it is clear that the decision was based on the backlash they were getting.

From the Weekly Standard:

Since 2007 the campus’s Matrix Center for Social Equity and Inclusion, directed by UCCS sociology professor Abby Ferber, had lent the controversial conference some academic sheen, including the fact that UCCS students could get academic credits for attending the conference as part of a UCCS course. Although the annual conference is headed by its 1999 founder, Eddie Moore Jr., diversity counselor at the Brooklyn Friends School, the Matrix Center had been its official home and Ferber one of its key organizers.

According to UCCS spokesman Tom Hutton, the university began pulling out of the conference in the spring of 2013. “The relationship with the conference ended as a result of confusion about its name and the negative attention generated by it. University leadership, in concert with the conference organizers, determined the distraction caused by the conference was not beneficial to our student body,” Hutton told me in an email.

This is pretty huge.

Though the conference will still exist, it will no longer appear to be an credible academic project.

Here’s to the University of Colorado.

Cheers.
