Ten bucks says.most of the cancelled courses were useless.bs.
I have no knowledge of anything - good or bad about the New College of Florida. Not sure I’ve even heard of it before.
But if it’s like the majority of woke colleges in America - GOOD!
I hope they fail.
“That’s going to make a challenge for students to complete their areas of studies here.”
Or keep your paycheck…
“””Terry confirmed that there are 341 incoming freshman this year compared to 277 in the fall of 2022. The school has a total enrollment of about 800 students, he said.”””

So CNN is being deceitful when they only report on the increase of incoming freshmen.
No surprise there.
Faculty more committed to leftism than they are to their students.

His last gig was repairing rotary phones...
"Urban studies". He'll be lucky if he has to change to a real major.
Oh no! Moron skulls full of mush will find it harder to fo hundreds of thousands of dollars into debt to get an absolutely worthless degree.
It's August, so nope. Roasting balloons filled with hot air....
CNN trots out Amy Reid, as a "trustee," in an article which it took two journalism majors and a politcal science major to scribble. Not much to identify her? Easily availble info, and easy to ignore....

"New College of Florida trustees move to end gender studies major"

This explains her appearance to "testify" to CNN.
Any course with “studies” in its name is leftist garbage.
Leffler is an urban studies major,
AKA: Communist Community Organizer.
“Leffler is an urban studies major”
Grievance studies majors are worse than useless, so if he has to switch to a real major, it will be to his benefit.
