The Messenger - Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis' so-called "anti-woke" crusade has now removed sociology as a core class from all 12 of the state's public universities. The Board of Governors voted to make the change on Wednesday. A core sociology course was also removed earlier this month from all 28 Florida public colleges, meaning that Florida students will no longer be able to chose sociology to fulfill their core class requirements... The American Sociological Association called the decision to dump the core sociology class "outrageous," and one informed by a "gross misunderstanding" of sociology as somehow "radical."
“Sociology is the scientific study of social life, social change, and the social causes and consequences of human behavior, which are at the core of civic literacy and are essential to a broad range of careers," the association said in a statement to the New York Times.
