Universities are a peculiar place to talk about "equity".

Universities were originally created by motivated leaders whom are now generations gone. Their replacements became tax free corporations. This is accomplished by lying to young adults, crippling them with debt, and telling them its for their own good. Your institution and others like it is responsible for socioeconomic strife. They are the cause of a lack of equity. The political opinions they put out are just so - rhetoric to combat this fact so the lie can continue.

To illustrate the deep disconnect from reality; Outside of the top 0.1% of uni's - The research universities put out is already done by private R&D. With better standards, equipment, and teams of experts. It turns out that you have to have actually make money to make things happen. Universities don't do this because nobody is buying. Industry isn't interested, which signals that nobody else should be either. A degree is no longer much of a signal at all.
