A professor sued Texas A&M University, alleging that a faculty fellowship program aimed at boosting diversity discriminates against white and Asian men.
“These discriminatory, illegal, and anti-meritocratic practices have been egged on by woke ideologues who populate the so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion offices at public and private universities,” the lawsuit reads.
Richard Lowery, who teaches finance at the University of Texas, filed the federal lawsuit on Saturday against Texas A&M University System and its board of regents; Annie S. McGowan, Texas A&M vice president and associate provost for diversity; and N.K. Anand, Texas A&M vice president for faculty affairs.
