Gov. Ron DeSantis is moving to block public funding for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs at state colleges and universities. He argues that these initiatives are purely ideological and need to be dismantled.
Several members marched at the Capitol last week in support of academic freedom. They also made signs for Tuesday’s rally Monday night.
UNF responded with a list of 20 entities, including The Office of Diversity and Inclusion, the Intercultural Center, Interfaith Center, LGBTQ Center and the Women’s Center, as well as four classes. Beyond UNF, at least 28 Florida state colleges have already ended campus DEI initiatives. Locally, that includes FSCJ, St. Johns River State College and Florida Gateway College.
