Pentagon Replaces Naval Academy Leader Who Oversaw Racist Affirmative Action Policies
2025-07-22
[Federalist] The leading official who presided over the U.S. Naval Academy’s use of racist affirmative action admissions policies is being replaced, the Pentagon announced on Friday.

According to a Defense Department press release, Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Michael J. Borgschulte has been nominated to replace Navy Vice Adm. Yvette Davids as the superintendent of the renowned military school. Davids — who was nominated to her now-former position by President Joe Biden — has since been reassigned to be the deputy chief of Naval Operations for Operations, Plans, Strategy, and Warfighting Development.

If confirmed by the Senate, Borgschulte will become the "first Marine to head the academic institution in its 180-year history," according to the left-wing Military.com.

The Pentagon’s move to replace Davids as the Navy school’s superintendent comes amid the Trump administration’s efforts to restore meritocracy and lethality to the military.
