Strobl was able to announce his new pronoun because the taxpayer-funded school launched a new web page allowing students to declare their preferred, “designated” pronouns….

“The University of Michigan is committed to fostering an environment of inclusiveness,” the email from the two campus bigwigs explains. “Consistent with that value, the University has created a process for students to designate pronouns with the University and have those pronouns reflected on class rosters this fall.”

Strobl described the email allowing students to designate their identities as “absolutely ridiculous” in an interview with The Daily Caller.
