Fire about 100-200 white males employed by the university, and explain that they were removed to comply with the order ensuring "no one shall be hired due to their race, or privilege".

You could also cancel thousands of white males acceptance status, because they were based on "racial preference".

I am tired of nibbling around the edges on this racist shit. It's time to play hardball.
