Gov. Spencer Cox attacked diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs at Utah’s colleges and universities, repeating his assertion that such initiatives foster divisiveness instead of inclusivity, in a December news conference.

Cox vowed to end a purported requirement that higher education employees must sign a “diversity statement” as a term of employment. It is unclear what diversity statements Cox was referencing.
