(Fox News) - The University of Delaware is coming under fire for a student diversity training program reportedly teaching that all whites are racist and offering what it calls "treatment" for incorrect attitudes regarding sexuality, religion and other subjects.

One training document for the program says, "The term (racist) applies to all white people... living in the United States, regardless of class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality. By this definition, people of color cannot be racists, because... they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities, or acts of discrimination."

Media reports say students who live in residence halls insist they are required to attend the meetings. The school says the program is not mandatory, but one official does acknowledge some "missteps" and says some language — including the reference to "treatment" — could be misunderstood.
