"Yale has successfully “decolonized” its English department, and some lucky students are now enrolled in a new course created by the department to ward off claims of departmental racism. Better yet, new standards have been implemented to guarantee a more “diversified” slate of courses.

All of this nonsense was precipitated by a petition from some undergraduates in May 2016 that slammed Yale’s English department for its "whiteness" because the university required English majors to take two courses in “Major English Poets,” including Chaucer, Shakespeare, Donne, Milton and Eliot."
