Twelve days after starting as chancellor, Creighton issued a Dec. 1 memo directing faculty across the system’s five universities to refrain from advocating or promoting a belief that individuals are inherently racist or sexist by virtue of their identity, or that meritocracy or a strong work ethic are constructs of oppression. The memo also instructed faculty to recognize only two sexes, male and female, and to disclose course content related to race, gender identity or sexual orientation for review. 
Creighton warned that failure to comply could result in “disciplinary action.” 
When faculty sought clarification, administrators said they could offer little guidance, according to two internal emails reviewed by The Texas Tribune. [emphasis added]

According to Merriam-Webster, the first known use of 'goober', as in a naive, ignorant, or foolish person, occurred in 1832, thirteen years before Texas was admitted to the Union.
