> This initiative is what is meant by “woke”

No, this is institutional PR by an institution that is very much the antithesis of woke; it may be trying to avoid criticism from people who are woke, but it’s interests are served just as well by discrediting the entire idea (which reduces pressure on it the same way as accommodation does, and more durably), and its actions reflect that.
