A new report reveals that many U.S. community colleges have hopped on the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) bandwagon, with an overwhelming majority of those surveyed having some form of DEI presence.

The report, from The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Education Policy, was based on a data set of degree-granting public or private community colleges that enroll at least 1,000 students, which amounted to 328 schools, or roughly 22 percent of all community colleges in the United States.
