Show Notes
University of Missouri cuts funding to five identity-based student groups, following federal pressure to curb diversity programs seen as discriminatory. The move, effective July 1st, reclassifies these groups to comply with a Department of Justice memo. Student leaders express concern over the loss of financial support, which covers events, mentorship, and first-year student resources. This decision echoes past budget cuts and racial tensions on campus, but students remain determined to advocate for inclusivity and belonging.
