No, diversity training should be encouraged but not required, and any faculty member that commits acts of discrimination should be expelled.

No, but mainly because mandatory diversity training is usually not the most effective way to create a better workplace environment for marginalized groups. Schools should focus on initiatives that bolster connection and open-mindedness in ways that work.

Yes, also creating awareness of Indigenous peoples history due to Canada. Discrimination against Indigenous peoples needs to stop. Every other race or culture is respected or unbothered. Educate! Or the cycle of disrespect and racism will only continue.

Teachers and school staff should receive diversity training so they do not pass biases and prejudice on to students. It's important teachers be informed on topics such as homophobia, transphobia, racism and xenophobia to help foster a welcoming classroom environment. Teachers shouldn't be allowed to spread hate speech in the classroom.

Mandatory Training should be focused less in cultures/ethnicities and more on differences that are universal to all humans — such as biological gender (female rights, toxic masculinity) and disabilities.

No, but discriminatory behaviour should be grounds for repercussions. Publically funded schools should have published guidelines for when termination is warranted.
