A Florida education bill would ban gender studies and give Ron DeSantis more power over state universities.

READ MORE |DeSantis has seen his standing among conservatives soar nationwide following his public stances on hot-button cultural and education issues.

The Republican governor has also installed a controversial new board at the New College of Florida, a public liberal arts college, with a mandate to remake the school into his conservative vision for higher education. Presidents of Florida's two-year community colleges last month committed to not teach critical race theory in a vacuum and to "not fund or support any institutional practice, policy, or academic requirement that compels belief in critical race theory or related concepts such as intersectionality, or the idea that systems of oppression should be the primary lens through which teaching and learning are analyzed and/or improved upon.

The state's education department characterized the move as a rejection of "'woke' diversity, equity and inclusion

Teach the students about the profession they are there for. This way they can be successful and competent in their career. Maybe they should focus more on academics and less on skin color. DeSantis in 2024!!! Perhaps parents could do those things!
