New College of Florida board moves to abolish Gender Studies program

I went to school back in the '80s, before Gender Studies (or even Feminist Studies) was a thing. I was in the English Department and managed to get out before wokeness had taken root, though. English was a great dumping ground for stuff they couldn't fit in anywhere else … we might be directed to analyze a novel using Marxist criticism or gay criticism, looking for anything the author might have intended to represent a phallus.

Sometime between then and now, Gender Studies programs because something you could actually major in. Joe Biden would like to forgive the loans of all those clowns who went into debt to get a doctorate in Gender Studies and can't find a job outside a Starbucks.

There was much gnashing of teeth and rending of garments when Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed Christopher Rufo to the board of trustees of New College of Florida, which DeSantis was determined to turn into a respectable university and not a clown college. Rufo says they're making progress:

Rufo writes in City Journal:

The faculty has changed, too. Through a combination of cultural incentives and good fortune, many of the most ideological, left-wing faculty members, who presided over the old orthodoxy and expressed strong opposition to the classical liberal arts, have left the university. Aaron Hillegass, a professor who said that he would “burn the college’s buildings to the ground” if he were “more patriotic,” resigned. Nicolas Delon, a professor who justified a violent protest against the new administration, left the college. Liz Leininger, a professor who spread baseless accusations of “McCarthyism” at New College, departed on her own accord.

In total, 36 professors have exited, clearing the way for a large number of new hires interested in pursuing the great human questions rather than maintaining a stifling, left-wing echo chamber. The college’s new cohort of scholars boasts Ph.D.s from institutions such as Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, and Northwestern. More importantly, all these professors share a commitment to classical liberal education, which prioritizes the pursuit of “the true, the good, and the beautiful” over the deadening bureaucratic trinity of “diversity, equity, and inclusion.”

And no more DEI department!

Social media has made the mainstream media lose its iron grip on the narrative. Imagine that done in academia.
