About this listen

In looking for ways to counter the decades of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) ideology that has infused the culture at Texas public universities, I reached out to Ben Crockett, who will graduate from the Bush School of Public Service at Texas A&M next month. Ben has been working with a number of alumni, faculty and other campus leaders who are creating a citizenship and service initiative at Texas A&M — they believe it is critical to restoring our values and turning things around on our campuses. See what you think.
