Cornell Erases Racially-Segregated Rock Climbing Class From Website

Cornell University changed the description for a racially-segregated rock climbing course after a student journalist confronted the university. 

According to a website archive, Cornell offered a course to students for the spring 2021 semester titled “BIPOC Rock Climbing.” The class was restricted to “people who identify as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, or other people of color.” After a contributor for Campus Reform brought the course to the university’s attention, the school changed the course description.
