Ohio's Higher Education Under Attack: Restricting DEI Training and Rewriting Curriculum.
TL;DR
The Ohio Senate has passed a controversial higher education bill, SB 83, which restricts mandatory diversity training, bans faculty strikes, and penalizes professors who fail to create classrooms free from bias. The bill has been criticized for trampling on academic freedom and could cause professors to skirt controversial subjects out of fear of reprisal from their administrations. The legislation is part of a national wave of conservative legislation seeking to change how students and staff experience life on America's college campuses.
