Indiana University Requires Students To Detail How Their Privilege Caused 'Oppression' Over 'Subordinate Groups'

An Indiana University class required students to determine their "privileged" and "dominant" identities—like being white or male—so that they could "address issues of oppression." The mandatory exercise was part of a course that fulfills the school's "social and historical studies" requirement needed to graduate.

Students were instructed to write an "in-depth reflection of two parts of [their] identity: one subordinate identity and one dominant identity," according to documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
