"Examples of the social problems the state wants to silence with the new version of the book include the killing of Trayvon Martin and the Black Lives Matter movement, both of which were removed despite existing in the previous text." madamenoire.com/1664612/shir...

"A 2023 Florida law banned arbitration. That’s a legal process of resolving disputes outside the court system. The law replaced it with a procedure giving university presidents more authority. A federal judge said it conflicted with the Federal Arbitration Act." www.wmnf.org/court-sides-...

"The changes to the textbook for an introductory sociology course removed about 400 pages from its prior version, including chapters on media and technology, global inequality, race, social stratification, gender and sexuality." www.news-journalonline.com/story/news/s...

“The police neutralized the shooter on April 17 in 2 minutes & 17 seconds, & they have told us that they wouldn't have been able to do that if there had been other guns on the scene. We’d be more at risk if there were more guns on campus.” - @uff-fsu.bsky.social Pres www.yahoo.com/news/article...

According to a UFF survey, “about 90% of professors rejected the 0% raises and one-time payments.” www.nicholsonstudentmedia.com/news/faculty...

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program. This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE. Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.
