The University of Michigan is a public research university in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Founded in 1817, 20 years before the Michigan Territory became a state, the university is Michigan's oldest. The institution was moved to Ann Arbor in 1837. Since its establishment in Ann Arbor, the university has expanded to include some 500 buildings spread out over the city.
Many people who later worked in intelligence services or deep state connected places have attended the university.

Woke administrative workers
The University of Michigan alone has nearly 100 full-time diversity-related administrative workers, more than a quarter of whom made more than $100,000 in 2018[1]. At nearby Michigan State University, the newly appointed diversity director made a $315,000 salary[2]. Jonathan Kay wrote: "These people aren’t getting hired to tell students to toughen up and hit the books. Just the opposite: Their livelihoods depend on upholding the idea that navigating campus life is a difficult struggle, punctuated frequently by invisible forms of bigotry whose negative effects can be managed only through the intervention of a professionalized corps of trained diversity officers."[3]
Othello
In 2021, Bright Sheng, a professor of composition at the University of Michigan, was removed from teaching a seminar analyzing the works of Shakespeare, after he faced backlash for showing students the 1965 film version of Othello where the actor Laurence Olivier’s darkened his skin for the title role. "I was stunned," freshman Oliva Cook said, "In such a school that preaches diversity and making sure that they understand the history of people of color in America, I was shocked that [Sheng] would show something like this in something that’s supposed to be a safe space."[4]
Later on the same day that Sheng showed the film, the professor sent out an apology to his class, saying the casting and portrayal "was racially insensitive and outdated," and another department-wide apology 5 days later. Students, however, were not satisfied, saying he "failed to understand the gravity of his actions."[4]
The dean of the School of Music, Theatre & Dance said Sheng’s removal would "allow for a positive learning environment."[4]
