"They will also be incentiviazed to never reach out to help minority students because it is too dangerous to say that they need the help."

Exactly this. It's so frustrating that some people seem to believe that the way to solve problems is by ignoring them or making it taboo to talk honestly about them.

Maybe there IS a shadowy racist conspiracy at Georgetown! Maybe Sellers is a member of the KKK! So find out. Carry out an investigation, and find out why those students in her class are performing poorly. If it's Sellers, fire her. If not, HELP THEM!!! This knee jerk approach to racial justice helps absolutely nobody except the virtue signallers. Certainly not black people.

As already stated, there is a huge difference between a cause for concern and an investigation and reason for dismissal.

This will lead to people creating selective meanings, without considering distinctions between reporting consequences vs doxing and mob policing.

I dream of society eventually prioritizing having shared definitions and a specific understanding of words. But that dream is unpatriotic and un-American.
