"Keep Florida free"
http://time.com/6258304/florid...dei-crt-universities/ House Bill 999 would ban any funding for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives at Florida state universities, even if they're privately funded. It would make trustees responsible for hiring decisions on faculty - university presidents would only be allowed to give recommendations - and tenure status could be reviewed at any time. The bill calls for the rewriting of university mission statements. It would ban general education courses that teach "curriculum based on unproven, theoretical, or exploratory content" and that define "American history as contrary to the creation of a new nation based on universal principles stated in the Declaration of Independence." Entire majors would also be banned, specifically, "any major or minor in Critical Race Theory, Gender Studies, or Intersectionality, or any derivative major or minor of these belief systems." African-American studies departments could also be vulnerable at public institutions statewide. "It is the most draconian bill that we've seen in the entire country relating to higher education," says Jeremy Young, who researches free speech and culture war issues at PEN America. "We are absolutely concerned about copycat bills in other states and about this spreading to be a national movement...I think it is very likely that this bill will pass in something very close to its current form in Florida, but it's never a sure thing." |
