Almost all colleges are pretty liberal, no matter what state they are in

I know! Why would you want to go to school where you can’t get an abortion while waiting in line at Chipotle?
UF is very difficult to get into. Look at this year's stats.
Record number of applications and less than 10% OOS acceptance rate, yet people are screaming “The sky is Falling!” at the top of their lungs.
Where are people getting this 10% OOS figure?
From their ass. And now some actual data for you people to thing about. From googling, only 3% of the entire undergraduate student body is out of state. That means roughly 1000 students are out of state compared with a total of 33,628 students. You are surrounded by an unimpressive in-state student body where the acceptance rate is 60%. If you're an above average student, why would you want to apply out of state to UF? Your academic peers will be a tiny, tiny group.
Type of school: Public, Research
Size of undergraduate student body: 33,628
Percent out-of-state: 3%
Percent international: 1.14%
Female to Male ratio: 55:45
Wrong! There were over 60k who applied (probably close to 67k) and about 15k accepted (between both in state and out of state). Vast majority are from Florida - the competition amongst Floridians is fierce. A lot of kids with very high stats (1500+ and 4.4+) who got rejected. It was even more difficult for in-staters and many are thinking that the OOS acceptance rate is close to 8-9%. Last year was also super competitive - but this year even more. You are probably looking at figures from 20/30 years ago.

I got it from a Florida admissions officer.

Good - they can all go back to California or Massachussetts

I know that my opinion is very unpopular, especially in this area, but I think this was a good move. The more we start focusing on an individual's merit (rather than their skin color and sexual orientation), the more the quality of the student body will improve. Also, even with the dismissal of the DEI staff, it's not like there will not be supportive organizations on campus for various groups. It's just means that the school wants to allocate its resources towards research and other things that could benefit the entire student body. I know that UF is extremely well-regarded and have made many decisions that have increased its ranking and popularity over the years. This current year, the acceptance rate was less than 25% over all and less than 10% for OOS. It's so bizarre how people think think that simply getting rid of DEI (which I believe has gone completely overboard) is synonymous to racism/discrimination.
Yes, they are getting rid of all those "supportive groups." They are no longer allowed to receive state or federal funding, so their dedicated spaces on campus will be gone too.

It is stupid and better for UF to not have those types of kids at their school. Although I bet the kids are okay going to UF - just the politically crazy parents are not.

100%! The money that had been used for DEI is much better served for improving facilities or attracting high caliber students/faculty with scholarships or competitive pay. DEI was such a waste; it just re-enforced racism rather than ameliorating it.
