Florida State U. drops ‘race, gender’ course after only 2 students enroll
The College Fix ^ | 9/15/23 | Micaiah Bilger

Too few Florida State University students expressed interest in learning about “race, class and gender” this fall through a new African American Studies course, the university confirmed this week.

All three subjects in the course are frequent topics of discussion in higher education institutions across the U.S., with many dedicating whole departments to women’s studies, gender studies, African American studies and related subjects.

But only two students signed up for the new fall elective, “Race, Class and Gender,” at Florida State University in Tallahassee, university spokeswoman Amy Farnum-Patronis told The College Fix.

Most people aren't as concerned with race and gender as the left wants to think. They don't want to obsess over it and dissect every single perceived "micro-aggression".

Silly of them.
The woke way is to demand students enroll and pass the course.
Dox, ridicule, cancel and humiliate others in public shaming sessions for not enrolling before class was overstuffed with students.

“Most people aren’t as concerned with race and gender as the left wants to think.”

At Florida State anyway. I’m sure the equivalent course in Gainesville is packed.

What will happen next is some DEI assistant vice provost will intimidate the other administrators to where the course will become a general education requirement. You don’t take it, you don’t graduate. The classroom will be thus filled!

“The woke way is to demand students enroll and pass the course.”

Next year, it’s likely to be a required course for graduation.

“Educator accused of harassing pro-life students online, comparing girl to blow-up sex doll”

The above article at College Fix shows just how sick some teachers are and is evidence why you should think twice about sending your child to be indoctrinated and abused by them.

When leftists speak of getting online “threats” there is a reason you never hear of an arrest. It is other leftists making those threats and any true investigation usually proves that fact. True conservatives just don’t operate that way.

Isn’t that a required credit to transfer to a woke law school? I guess those 3 will have to find that class online somewhere and enroll.

The two that enrolled are good to go...the other 11,458 students are racists.

I would be very disappointed in Sasse if that were true.

The same institution that fired a professor for his false race claims.
