I’m hearing that at Baylor University, the Texas Baptist university that has been surrendering to aggressive wokeness (see my recent “Every Knee Shall Bow”), there are faculty and staff who are urgently concerned that the institution is about to pass the point of no return. One of my readers, an alumnus who is very well connected at the university, writes:

You recently reported that the Baylor Board of Regents had entrusted President Linda Livingstone with chartering an LGBT group that provided community and support for Baylor’s LGBT students and yet also was consistent with the University’s stated position on sexuality. Every Knee Shall Bow | The American Conservative

As a Baylor alum, I have to wonder why on earth the regents would trust Livingstone to do this given how her administration has handled Title IX training for faculty and students. Remember the “tea video” that you discussed here? Tea And (Sexual) Sympathy At Baylor | The American Conservative

How about the slides from the faculty and staff Title IX training that mandated trans inclusive language? The Title IX Transformation Of Baylor | The American Conservative

Now the word around the campfire is that after you posted ‘The Title IX Transformation of Baylor’ that training was taken down within a day. There remains at least one Baylor regent who draws breath and has not bent the knee to Baal somewhere.

So the administration was trying to sneak trans-inclusive language into their faculty and staff training, and they got caught red-handed. The faculty and staff training was better the following year. But now staff tell me that the administration has now started making the training super-woke again. I suppose the administration decided that if they couldn’t explicitly signal Wokeness by mandating trans inclusive language, they could implicitly send that message through the training. Despite LGBT being only a fraction of the population, they dominate the training. There is clearly a message being sent here.
