"I don’t think it will be long before we look back on the last few years of free speech suppression and the repeated career-ending accusations of racist for those who questioned the DEI movement. We are all shortly going to realize that the DEI era is the McCarthy era Part II."

New College of Florida is one example. “On any campus, there has to be a rule of law,” president Richard Corcoran tells me. “You can’t have a just, functioning college without that.” The school is on pace to grow its enrollment from less than 700 students today to up to 1,500 students.
