Other than perhaps Planned Parenthood which employer goes after gender studies students?

This is what is going to happen believe it or not your call.

DeSantis's plan is to remove the Theory of Evolution. Imagine med or vet schools without that. Imagine Science without that. He is going to do this starting right after 2024. This is coming make no mistake the religious right is going to own Florida Universities.

The idea is to remove National Accreditations yep that is where they are headed. They want a National Split. Then they will rebuild in their image.

I am not wrong or crazy.

Keep sending your kids OOS to red states those degrees are going to be worthless not to meantion scary shit.






Hi conspiracy theorist!!

Meanwhile FL universities rank faaaaaaaaaaar higher than DC ones, and keep climbing while DC ones keep going closer to the bottom.

But sure, thanks for warning us


They rank higher than Georgetown, American, and the George Washington University?


GW is currently ranked at 62, UF is 29, GT is 22, American University is 73. This is according to US News ranking. You can find ranking for the rest of the Florida schools, such as FSU, FCU, SUF, MII but overall, they are highly ranking schools and some of them very competitive. Florida universities experiencing huge influx of applicants from NE in a last three years. I think cost of attendance might be one of the reason too.


It’s a big university in a big state so it offers a lot of majors and degrees and its top students are good but every student at AU or GW and almost every student at UMD or George Mason or Howard could get into UF but at least half UF students couldn’t get into any of those five schools.

UF graduate student enrollment is 27% international students. Like many public universities their science and technology Ph.D programs are dependent on international students.


Lol…just no. People in the DMV have such a boner for thinking the education here is simply the finest


A lot of military family who had kids in FCPS and relocated to Florida finding that their kids are a year behind from Florida schools, yet everyone around here believes that Fairfax school system is to notch.

They are ranked higher, and in the last two years it is very hard to get in, especially for kids from NE. People in Northern Virginia naively think that their kids easily can get there, but in reallity they cannot get into their own state schools like UVA.

Lol, IME it’s the reverse! FCPS—Broward
FCPS—Hillsborough
Kids were behind from FCPS equity initiatives.
You’re going to need to post a link proving your claim.

You'll find complaints in the opposite direction too. Virginia is not quite common core, so a kid from a common core state may be ahead in some areas and behind in others. The ubiquity of advanced math (I think about half in our non-center school) means that by 6th about half the kids are a year ahead in math

It's not that Florida schools are the best in the world, but DC ones, with very few exceptions, are lower than average, and full of anti-academic woke stuff.

We're comparing apples with apples -- public with public.

DeSantis held a press conference about book banning. Held up some of the material that was being removed from schools. The networks censored the books as inappropriate.
Successful troll by DeSantis.

To supposedly have such great school systems, there are a lot of posters from the DC area who seem to be paying for private tutoring, evaluations, and private school education.

The new president of UF is a former Republican senator.

"DeSantis is much more private about a behind-the-scenes effort that is frighteningly serious. Last month, The Tampa Bay Times reported that he is appearing in radio ads — in Idaho, of all places — invoking Article 5 of the U.S. Constitution to call for a convention to amend the Constitution.

DeSantis’ stated goal is to get in an amendment imposing congressional term limits. But, as Puck News notes, "even this position has allowed fringe conservatives to dream of a day when they can use their control of state legislatures to fix all sorts of perceived federalist ills."

If they want to fix the constitution, how about making the president elected by popular vote.

They don’t want to fix the constitution, they want to destroy the country. It’s pretty obvious that they want a fascist country, though they wouldn’t call it that. What DeSantis is doing to the universities and what he’s doing with books - it’s clear.

I think that this is a healthy change.

I appreciate those who express concern about the curriculum changes and the overall guiding principles of the soon-to-be-new New College of Florida, but the current New College of Florida is more of a failure than it is a success. Change is needed as the new College of Florida is in a continuing path of decline. Taxpayer dollars should be used to fund core subjects in education.

Whether you like or dislike Governor Ron DeSantis' stance, it is a message that needs to be heard and considered by all just as opposing viewpoints should be. Governor DeSantis and the Florida legislature were elected by the people of Florida and I believe that he reflects the majority opinion of the voters in his state.

Setting aside Republicans cheating and suppressing votes, fascism is never acceptable whether or not “the majority” supports it. There is right and there is wrong and I’m appalled at the moral relativism of people who want to pretend at being decent and sensible. If this barrels off in the direction it’s currently going, you’ll be one of the people who said you just liked that the trains ran on time.
