The memo cites recent state restrictions on the use of public funds.
The University of Florida has eliminated all diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) positions at the university, according to an administrative memo that was released Friday.
The memo cites a recent state ban on the use of public funds for diversity, equity and inclusion programs, activities and policies – as well as activities for “political or social activism” – in the public college system. The Florida Board of Governors passed this restriction in January, shortly after the Florida Board of Education passed a similar ban.
The University of Florida has closed the Office of the Chief Diversity Officer, “eliminated DEI positions and administrative appointments, and halted DEI-focused contracts with outside vendors,” the memo states.
Your “heritage” lasted 5 years. The Obama administration lasted three years longer than your “heritage.”
So Obama is more normal than the glorious Confederacy.
Sorry.
Florida’s heritage is to be a shitty place:
“On August 11, 1776, when news of the Declaration of Independence became known in St. Augustine, they became so incensed that they made effigies of John Hancock and Samuel Adams and hung them in the trees in St. Augustine Plaza and set them on fire." (Ben Brotemarkle. 2024. FLORIDA TODAY)
