On Monday, school officials at the University of Southern California yielded to pressure from students and announced they would begin taking steps to implement more “diversity” programs on campus.

The University of Southern California student senate passed a controversial “diversity” resolution Tuesday evening–the latest example of the “Ferguson effect” that is seizing campuses around the nation.

Following three hours of heated and emotionally-charged public discussion at the University of Southern California on Tuesday evening, student Senators ultimately decided to postpone the vote on a controversial campus resolution urging $100 million be spent on mandatory diversity classes and to create an “inclusion climate” on campus.

On Tuesday, the USC Student Government (USG) is slated to vote on a resolution that will seek to “improve the diversity, equity, and inclusion climate on campus” and asks for $100 million to go towards a scholarship fund to help “underrepresented” groups be better recognized.
