ICYMI: SLF_Liberty sent letters to Florida universities calling on them to revise their Title IX policies that currently undermine students’ free speech. How can students engage in debate on issues of gender if they’re afraid of being penalized for misgendering someone?

UW-Madison claims it's shutting down its DEI division—while relocating the same programs and staff under new offices. Rebranding won’t fix it. Discrimination is corrosive to campus culture and does nothing to support student success.
