I FEBRUARY 21, 2017 6 udreview.com Q&A.: State’s Chief Justice explains school-wide diversity problem

MICHAEL MOSSESSIAN Staff Reporter

The university’s NAACP chapter hosted the Chief Justice of the Delaware Supreme Court, Leo E. Strine Jr., on Thursday night to discuss state education policy and efforts to increase diversity on campus. The event covered the university’s issues with diversity, inclusivity and community outreach. “Diversity is an interesting word,” Strine said. “(It] has become a word to dilute the focus on overcoming the real barriers in society.” Michael Mossessian: In its current state the Delaware school system appears underfunded and under resourced. Is this the product of a history of segregation and racial discrimination? Leo E. Strine Jr.: In reality it’s far sadder than that. The statistics on Black poverty in Delaware are tragic.
