The governor says terms like diversity, equity and inclusive have been “hijacked” by the left.
“Florida is getting out of that game,” Ron DeSantis said during a bill signing at New College of Florida in Sarasota. “If you want to do things like gender ideology, go to Berkeley — go to some of these other places.” | Chris duMond/Getty ImagesTALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Colleges and universities in Florida are no longer allowed to spend their cash on most diversity, equity and inclusion programs under a slate of higher education reforms Gov.
“Florida is getting out of that game,” DeSantis said during a bill signing at New College of Florida in Sarasota. “If you want to do things like gender ideology, go to Berkeley — go to some of these other places.” The measure builds on last year’s Stop-WOKE Act pushed by DeSantis to restrict how lessons on race and gender can be taught — policies that Florida is currently blocked from enacting as a legal challenge plays out in federal court.
DeSantis signed the legislation at New College amid an ongoing overhaul of the university led by trustees appointed by the governor. Under the new leadership, New College earlier this year gutted its diversity, equity and inclusion programming — a precursor to what other universities could soon experience under the DeSantis administration.
