I have quietly thought that Skinner might not want to have DU go in the direction it seemed to be going against her. But I, of course, could not and would not appear to speak for him.

My sense is that there is an Admin feeling that it would not be a good thing to piss off Feminists on DU. So many of us flocked to DU in the early years because we believed in the humanistic virtue of DU, largely supported by a strong Feminist group. It was part of DU's dna.
