Michigan State University may have violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by inviting students to participate in campus affinity groups, organizations which are separated by race.
That is the view of University of Michigan professor Mark Perry, who cites the 1964 law to support his contention.
MSU compares an affinity group to a caucus that is set up to provide “spaces for people to work within their own identity groups.”
MSU distributed a document called the Affinity Group Invitation for its Student Success Spring Conference. The invitation read, “There will be an affinity group for white folx and an affinity group for people of color.”
