FIU professors weigh showdown with DeSantis over ‘censored’ sociology course
"Professors at Florida International University are debating whether to pick a fight with the DeSantis administration over a state-created sociology curriculum that places substantial limits on how race and gender can be taught in one of the subject’s foundational courses. At issue for FIU’s sociology department is a new ultimatum from the Miami school’s top academic officer: teach the state’s version of the class, or oust it from the university’s general-education curriculum at the risk of cratering enrollment and tuition revenue.
Faculty now must decide whether to defy Gov. Ron DeSantis or adopt a top-down proposal they say runs roughshod over academic freedom and waters down honest classroom discussions about identity and structural inequality. “The censored version didn’t live up to the standards of the field,” sociology professor Matthew Marr told the Herald/Times on Tuesday after a heated Faculty Senate meeting. “That’s doing a disservice to our students. We’re giving them a subpar, poor curriculum.”"
