“How can an accreditor investigate state interference - from the state that’s paying its employees?” - Dr. Cassanello, UFF President and UCF history professor nicholsonstudentmedia.com/news/ucf-first…
DeSantis demands 835K because his failed efforts to break public employee unions have created staffing headaches at PERC. Union busting is an expensive flop — and now he wants the public to foot the bill!!!
DeSantis's budget would add $835k to hire six new staff to help PERC cope with the higher workload resulting from the 2023 anti-union law. "Since SB 256 passed in 2023, the Public Employees Relations Commission (PERC) has experienced a surge in workload across all areas."
This @McGeeReports and @nico_gjc story on Mark Welsh is stellar. The records they got were incredible, and show the intervention and influence of top politicians in the A&M president's ouster — all as Texas colleges move rightward. texastribune.org/2025/12/10/tex… #txlege #highered

🚨 UFF endorses and supports this petition!nSign to SUPPORT Florida college instructors & DEFEND academic freedom. This “rule” is a bad-faith effort to interfere with curriculum & impose extreme surveillance of faculty. The new college rules also limit student-centered pedagogy!
🚨 Academic freedom is under attack, and we’re not standing down. We, alongside the @UnitedFacultyFL, have filed a petition seeking to protect academic freedom and the learning environment our students deserve. Read more: bit.ly/3Y4e9zu

Florida Board Says Syllabi, Reading Lists Must Be Posted Publicly for 5 Years Faculty at some Florida public universities argue the new policy is less about transparency for students and more about chilling academic freedom. bit.ly/3XhRKyq
No one takes seriously a new college ranking system designed by ideologues to reward themselves. TX and FL are not fooled. The Manhattan Institute’s “ranking” is a fig leaf meant to hide the REAL reputational damage caused by their educational “reforms.”
Right-wing think tank the Manhattan Institute has created its own college ranking system. It ranks institutions where it has had great success imposing an ideological takeover—University of Florida + University of Texas at Austin—in the top two spots. ⬇️ wsj.com/opinion/colleg…
As this administration’s attacks on higher education ramp up, so does public support to halt attempts to regulate speech and curriculum.
Amid Trump’s Assault on Higher Ed and DEI, Free Speech Advocates Stay Busy Three nonprofit legal organizations say their caseload has ramped up significantly since Trump took office. But so has public support for their work. bit.ly/4ou6bed

It pays to be a UFF member! A reminder of all the benefits and services our statewide union benefits committee makes happen.
