Republican attack on DEI initiatives (diversity, equity and inclusion) contradicts Florida law kathrynvarn

That law sought to ban campus and workplace diversity training that made someone feel guilty for past historical wrongs. A federal judgeAndrade's bill also includes provisions to grant governor-appointed boards of trustees more hiring power and allow faculty tenure review at any time, both of which were part of. Andrade said the governor played no role in writing the bill. He took on the issue, he said, based on feedback from constituents of his conservative-leaning district.

In reality, campus DEI work can include pre-college programs that engage with K-12 students who otherwise wouldn’t have an introduction to higher education, academic support programs to help students pursue an area of study that has historically excluded them, or social support programs that allow students to engage with an identity or interest they have, Granberry Russell said.

Andrade refuted that notion. He also refuted that his bill would eliminate scholarships for minority students, such as the minority teacher scholarship in Florida Law.
