Franklin County’s DEI Office has funneled over $600,000 to the program since 2023
Ohio’s most populous county funds a race-based medical education program that is only open to black students, an initiative lawyers say is patently unlawful and could put the county in legal jeopardy.
Franklin County, home of Columbus, Ohio, has funneled more than $600,000 to the Made for Medicine program since 2023, the year the Supreme Court banned affirmative action in college admissions. Designed to “increase Black representation in the medical field,” the program provides special courses, labs, and research opportunities to middle and high school students who “identify as African American or Black,” according to a frequently asked questions page.

Right! Try that in reverse.
