Some board members, appointed by Youngkin, pushed back on the mandates, with George Mason board member denouncing 'indoctrination' and questioning the need for mandates, stating, 'They're never going to go away.'
Both Virginia Commonwealth and George Mason universities decided to not enforce the diversity mandates after the pushback. Youngkin faced student protests during a commencement address, with students demonstrating against his stance on racial equity in education.
