The first and most thorough adoption of CRT in the United States was at [[Evergreen State College]] in 2017. Proposals were advanced for race-based hiring and promotion, and administrators tried to pressure faculty to change the grades of a black student who complained. The students took over the library/administration building, seized the cafeteria, demanded that the President stand-down the police, while they hunted down Bret Weinstein, a faculty-critic, with baseball bats. When the administration called a town-hall meeting, the black students actively discouraged white students from attending. The national publicity of the crisis resulted in a large drop in enrollment and donations. | The first and most thorough adoption of CRT in the United States was at [[Evergreen State College]] in 2017.
