West Virginia University has launched a new higher-education programme presented as a response to “woke” ideology, but reporting indicates that only one student has enrolled so far. According to NDTV and Mediaite, the programme is at the centre of criticism and debate about efforts to counter what supporters describe as “woke” approaches in colleges and universities. Mediaite notes that as of the time of reporting, enrollment stands at a single student, suggesting the programme has not yet attracted broader interest. NDTV similarly reports that only one student has signed up for the initiative, which is described in the coverage as costing Rs 29 crore. The articles frame the situation as an early snapshot of adoption rather than a long-term measure of enrollment. Both outlets treat the low enrollment as a notable development for a programme that was introduced with the stated goal of challenging “woke” ideology in academia. Neither source indicates additional enrolment figures beyond this one-student count at the time of publication.
