DEI dropped: Medical schools won't be graded on diversity amid federal, state crackdown

Citing state crackdowns on diversity, equity and inclusion, the organization that accredits medical schools has dropped diversity as a measure of the quality of medical education.

The Liaison Committee on Medical Education on May 19 voted to eliminate diversity programs and partnerships as criteria when it grades the performance of medical schools that confer "MD" degrees to students.

The liaison committee said it acted because new and proposed state laws targeting diversity, equity and inclusion conflict with the accrediting body's standards. Eliminating diversity standards would create "a single set of accreditation expectations with which all schools, regardless of their location and current legislative environment, must comply," the liaison committee said in a statement.

A liaison committee spokesperson said the committee made the decision after "thoughtful and careful consideration and discussion." Its two sponsoring organizations, the Association of American Medical Colleges and the American Medical Association, did not answer questions from USA TODAY.

The decision to target diversity is a setback in efforts to attract medical students of all backgrounds, said doctors who have worked to promote diversity.

TVNL Comment:....and then there were none. Every institution that surrenders to the madmen that made DEI a crime brings us closer to total nihilism.
