A group of six community college professors in California are suing the state over its requirements to include diversity, equity, and inclusion elements in their courses.
in a statement Thursday. “The government is forcing professors to teach and preach a politicized viewpoint they do not share, imposing incomprehensible guidelines, and threatening to punish professors when they cross an arbitrary, indiscernible line.”
The new mandates require professors to"promote and incorporate culturally affirming DEIA and anti-racist principles to nurture and create a respectful, inclusive, and equitable learning and work environment." The guidelines also instruct professors to"respect and acknowledge the diversity of students and colleagues."
The plaintiffs claimed the new guidelines will affect their academic freedom because they are all being evaluated based on their inclusion of diversity and inclusion concepts in their classrooms.
