"Texas is targeting professors who are more focused on pushing leftist ideologies rather than preparing students to lead our nation,"
"We must end indoctrination and return to education fundamentals at all levels of education."
"to ensure compliance and alignment with applicable law and state and federal guidance, and to make sure any courses that are taught on U.T. campuses are aligned with the direction and priorities of the Board of Regents."
Governor Greg Abbott said the state will go after university professors he says push leftist ideologies and celebrated a reported dismissal over "ideological differences." The University of Texas System launched an audit of all courses for content related to transgender people and identity to ensure compliance with law and alignment with Board of Regents priorities; results will be discussed in November. A Texas A&M literature professor, Melissa McCoul, lost an administrative post after a student objected to her statement that there are more than two genders; she is appealing and considering legal options. Texas lacks a law banning discussion of race or LGBTQ+ issues at public universities, while a K-12 "Don't Say Gay" law bans mentioning sexual orientation and gender identity in classrooms and imposes broader restrictions.
