An historically amazing college, currently under new management.
Pardon the dust. We're working on it. Sort of.
#newcollegeoffl It's not just an education, it's a de-evolution.

Richard Corcoran said this is too long to read, but the AI summary says it's probably pretty good
This is a very good read about what #NewCollegeOfFlorida was really like, and what forces were and are arrayed against it.
And why it matters. Ecstatic wonder.
How's your campus looking?

This is much more complicated than when we just had our Board knock this out and remove the dangerous and divisive gender studies
“Race and gender ideology”
is a propagandistic slogan that authoritarian governments invented.
A vote in favor of this ban is a vote in favor of authoritarian propaganda + censorship.

Texas A&M to vote on banning “race and gender ideology”
The proposal appears to mark the first time a Texas university system offers definitions of what kind of instruction related to race and gender should not be permitted.

We've always had a high(er) cost per student compared to most FL schools. We're just that good. Now, since we're even better, it costs more. You want excellence? There's a premium on that
The DeSantis administration has turned New College into the least efficient school in the state's university system.
"The operating funds per student at New College is $83,207 — four times the university system average."
Battling "woke waste" is not cheap.

Of course it's so. We are at the forefront of innovative academic rigor and free speech, and Ron DeSantis (we call him Ronny D) was just here today so he and Richard Corcoran could talk about Charlie Kirk some more, and we love President Donald J. Trump, and will sign anything he sends us

Ugh, that jagwad is one of our graduates. Maybe he never took a math class?
After anchor Jose Diaz-Balart described Saturday’s #NoKings crowd as “several thousand protesters in some cities,” @nbcnews.com tonight reported the actual attendance - 7M - in a two-sentence reader (big “we regret the error” vibes).
I’m glad they followed up and corrected the record. It matters.

Our alumni certainly do make a noteworthy scene
A New College alum suggested that the administration is committing "fraud" at last month's Board of Governors meeting. "I just want to be clear that what's happening at New College is a fraud. It's a fraud against the students, the legislature, and this board."

Absolutely correct. Any good college or university knows that international students are where the bags of cash are!
Our international students (same as out of state) get charged about 4x the tuition of in-state students.

From a transcript of a faculty meeting discussing this:
Faculty are being told to not teach on gender and sexuality at all, regardless of their field, and the Dean isn’t even sure if the faculty *can accept papers from students that discuss these topics*.

New College of Florida, Florida’s smallest public university, plans to build a statue of Charlie Kirk, the right-wing activist killed in Utah last week, to display on its Sarasota campus, according to a Tuesday social media post from the school.

I don't mean a release where they lie about enrollment, or stories in RW outlets like this ⬇️ where President Richard Corcoran lied that New College had broken an "all-time enrollment record." Not even close.
That's Corcoran's MO:
