This. I feel a university should be a place of the truth and what cannot be classified as such is up for a debate.

That document classified nothing as true or untrue; it simply stated some things that are not compatible with the university's mission (goals being inherently subjective) and that the professors would resist such things. I would prefer that the document acknowledge that racism, bigotry, etc. are subjective judgments, however; it spoke of them as if they were objective classifications.
