Cornell charges students $1,800 for racially-segregated rock climbing class, frantically scrubs website when confronted
Campus Reform | February 18, 202 1 | Matthew Wilson

A Cornell University course titled “BIPOC Rock Climbing,” was originally restricted to “people who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, or other people of color.”

When Campus Reform contacted the school, Cornell officials edited the course description to remove the race-based enrollment restriction.

The course’s original description, noting the class’s race-based enrollment restriction, is still visible, courtesy of an internet archive.

When asked for comment, John Carberry, Cornell’s Senior Director of Media Relations and News, issued a statement to Campus Reform claiming that “all Cornell students” are “welcome” to enroll in the course, contradicting the original course description.

What’s the use? I thought walls don’t work.
