Across the nation, several states have worked to shut down diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). However, a watchdog group recently revealed that a school in Utah may be simply rebranding its DEI to avoid scrutiny.
Get involved in state-level prayer with IFA.
From Fox News:
“No, no comment,” University of Utah education coordinator Lucas Alvarez told Accuracy in Media when asked about an allegation he was pushing DEI in violation of a 2024 law aimed at curbing DEI practices inside state universities.
Accuracy in Media President Adam Guillette then showed Alvarez video of him explaining the current DEI practices at the university.
“We’re still, I think, figuring out as we go, like, HB261,” Alvarez said in the video. “It’s complicated, I mean, like, the programs that we’re doing, I think technically we’re still allowed to do them, but they have to be marketed in a certain way.”
Alvarez also made another comment “suggesting DEI was still a focus at the university,” according to Fox. LeiLoni McLaughlin, the university’s director of the Center for Community & Cultural Engagement, seemingly echoed his comments about changing the marketing, telling Guillette that, due to “legislative changes, every university has had to shift” their actions and marketing.
A spokesperson for the university rejected “the assertion that the university is hiding diversity work with rebranding and remarketing.” He clarified that Alvarez is “not a spokesperson for the University of Utah,” stressing that his comments “do not reflect the position of the institution.”
Reflecting on the video footage, filmed in October 2024 and May of this year, Guillette told Fox that “Utah needs a Kansas-style DEI ban with a reporting mechanism and actual legal consequences” in order to combat what he calls “a broken system.”
As Republicans across the nation push for an end to DEI, let’s pray that schools wouldn’t be able to find loopholes like these!

If only we could publicize President Bush’s quote, “The soft bigotry of low expectations,” to all the schools across America. Of course we hope to help all students achieve their potential, but their awards need to be their own accomplishments for true success and encouragement.
Lord we pray for your mercy and grace, save our youth from this evil. Expose all lies and may justice be served. Please save us and liberate us from this evil. Let your truth prevail In Jesus name we pray.
Those who are looking for ways to cheat the laws should just be fired and no severance that is the only way to treat this evil so those who are possessed by that evil might seek Jesus to expel that demonic spirit from them. I trust in God.
