UNLV professor killed in 2023 mass shooting is named as part of Trump’s DEI crackdown at colleges

A Las Vegas university professor who was killed in a mass shooting at the campus more than a year ago has been named by the Trump administration in a new investigation into Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in higher education.

Patricia Navarro-Velez, 39, was one of three people gunned down in December 2023 mass killing on the school’s campus. A spokesperson for UNLV confirmed that she had been named as part of a federal investigation by the Department of Education.

The probe is part of Donald Trump’s ongoing efforts to remove DEI programs from educational institutions and within government agencies. The feds had targeted 45 different colleges as part of their investigation. Navarro-Velez was named as one of the UNLV educators being looked at for violating Trump’s anti-DEI order that was issued in January 2025. 

Patrica Navarro-Velez is dead following a mass shooting at UNLV. Yet, the orange ass clowns apparatchiks insist there be an investigation into her being part of a DEI monitoring team. Did I mention Patrica Navarro-Velez is dead? This Kafkaesque at its worst.
