Graduating New College student hands a copy of George Orwell's "1984" to DeSantis ally and New College's Interim President Richard Corcoran (who, notably, opted to sit in the back row and not shake graduates' hands)

“New College’s response today suggests the institution’s leaders fail to understand their obligations to the public as government actors,”

This is how @USouthFlorida treats students who stand up for diversity programs, multicultural groups & ethnic studies. The #Tampa5 were brutalized by @USFPDTampa & now face prison time for using their first amendment right. Defend the Tampa 5 here!: tinyurl.com/tampa5

"Once they start bad-mouthing students and speaking down to them, that was sort of a line that I felt like I couldn't be silent. That's not how you teach. That's not how you engage students." -Erik Wallenberg, former New College visiting professor.

BREAKING: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is humiliated as students from Florida’s prestigious New College defy him in the best way possible.
After DeSantis conducted a “takeover” of the left-leaning college through his fascist anti-LGBTQ+ policies, the students struck back by putting together an “alternate” gradation ceremony where they can celebrate the graduation of their LGBTQ+ classmates without being punished by DeSantis.
The college’s LGBTQ+ students say that they have been specifically targeted by DeSantis, which is why they made sure their graduation ceremony featured ample rainbow and pink-and-blue flags.
But it gets even better…
The alternate graduation ceremony, which was attended by the vast majority of the college’s students, is just one of many events that the students have organized to protest against DeSantis.
VICE News reports that, “Students at the school have also defied DeSantis by hosting inclusive chess tournaments, dances, garage sales, rallies, and, of course, protests. In February, about 300 students and parents, some dressed in Handmaid’s Tale outfits, protested a board meeting held by the new right-wing administration."
"The fact is that we are incredibly resilient students. We are queer students living in Florida," a student told Vice. “We have survived through this before and we're going to continue surviving through it.”
Please RT and ❤️ to thank the brave students for taking a stand against fascist Ron DeSantis — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new “woke” Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

Ron DeSantis has waged a war against a small liberal college, implementing a right-wing board of trustees that would transform New College to model a Christian, conservative one.
But queer students are fighting back. And they’re not giving up.

Today’s example of @NewCollegeofFL cognitive dissonance — DeSantis blasts the same college (and students/faculty!) that Corcoran praises. A bit hard to feel appreciated after witnessing a semester of constant insults from BoT directed towards students, staff, and faculty.

The transparent use of @NewCollegeofFL as a political stunt to further a presidential campaign has very real consequences.

About 30 ODU students and a few faculty members turned their backs on Gov. Youngkin in protest during his commencement speech at the school’s graduation ceremony.
