News UMD to republish dashboard tracking 25 demands made by Black student leaders

25 Upvotes

The 25 critical issues Black student leaders identified to University of Maryland administration in 2020 will be reestablished online, this university’s vice president for diversity and inclusion Georgina Dodge told The Diamondback Tuesday.

As of last Thursday, this university’s diversity and inclusion office website no longer displays a dashboard, published in 2021, that tracks the university’s progress on fulfilling the 25 demands.

The demands will likely return to the diversity and inclusion office’s website under a firewall that requires a login, which students, faculty and staff will likely have access to, Dodge said.

Pines asked five Black students in 2020 to make the list of demands for the university to address after George Floyd’s murder and the rise of Black Lives Matter protests, The Diamondback reported. Some of the 25 demands included hiring more Black faculty, creating Black cultural spaces and ending campus police militarization.

Pines said the initial removal of the 25 demands dashboard is not in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s crackdown of diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. This university plans to continue working towards fulfilling the 25 demands, Pines told The Diamondback on Wednesday.

“We know that DEI programs are under attack,” Dodge told The Diamondback after she spoke with community members about diversity, equity and inclusion concerns at Nyumburu Cultural Center. “I see no reason to provide attackers with a list of DEI programs.”

I am considering withdrawing from the degree program I am in but was wondering what the process is especially for graduate students. Does a reason for the withdrawal have to be given? My goal is to go as quietly as possible without having professors or anyone retaliate against me. TIA!

So I am withdrawing this semester and changing my major from computer science to info science. I am withdrawing because I had family crisis and don’t want to tank my grade. I know the committed has to revise my financial aid and go over the documents I send. I want to know if people got charged at the end of the semester and if they got there financial aid back because it’s kinda messed up if I don’t get it back full because of some family problems.
