Their econ department has been hemorrhaging seniors, and they’ve had real problems recruiting juniors.

From what I heard, the dean who doesn't like econ was long gone. The current dean likes econ. That's why they can have many senior job talks. Don't know about the DEI type.
The dean doesn't like econ too much and the department has been captured by DEI types
