Indology vs Urology

UCLA, in this day and age, has a Philip Roth School of Indology
where researchers, mostly people of European origin, study the culture, history and languages of the Indian subcontinent.

To allay suspicions of having a euro-centric, orientalist worldview reminiscent of the racist, colonial 19th century,
the University decided to build, right next to The Stanley Wolpert School of Indology, the Sanjay Gupta Department of Urology,
where physicians, mostly people of Indian origin, study the human urinary tract.

This prompted critics, mostly people of British origin, to wonder if UCLA was 'taking a piss'.

Now, this entire story is NOT TRUE. But what is true is what it tells us about UCLA.
