Opinion | How Anti-Woke Ideology Transformed My College
SHARE

In the past three years, the landscape of higher education in Florida has undergone significant changes under the leadership of Governor Ron DeSantis. The push to remove what he deems as “woke ideology” from universities has created a climate of fear and self-censorship among professors and students alike.

Previously, Florida faculty members felt confident in their ability to engage in open and complex discussions without fear of repercussions. However, since the crackdown on higher education, professors have found themselves walking on eggshells, wary of what they can say and teach. Terms like “racism” and “intersectional” are being avoided, and some instructors have been reprimanded for using certain language deemed inappropriate by the new standards.

The influence of Governor DeSantis has not gone unnoticed by former President Trump, who has praised Florida’s efforts to overhaul its university system. Trump has even threatened to withhold funding from colleges that do not comply with his vision of purging “woke” language and ideologies. This has created a chilling effect on campuses, with professors facing harassment and investigations for addressing sensitive topics, both in and out of the classroom.

The atmosphere of fear and self-censorship has permeated the academic community, leading to a breakdown of trust and open dialogue. Professors have been subjected to entrapment tactics, with individuals posing as students to incite controversy and target faculty members who do not align with the new ideological standards.

As the situation escalates, the tension on campus has only intensified. Recent actions by Trump have not only impacted the humanities and social sciences but also threaten research funding for STEM fields. Additionally, the targeting of international students has created a climate of fear and uncertainty among noncitizen students on campus.

The current administration’s distrust of college instructors and push to stifle academic freedom has left many professors questioning their ability to challenge students and foster critical thinking. The essence of teaching, which revolves around creating a community of trust and intellectual curiosity, has been compromised by the culture of fear and self-censorship.

Despite these challenges, professors like Anna Peterson at the University of Florida remain committed to their students and their work. The desire to facilitate open and meaningful discussions in the classroom persists, even in the face of mounting pressure and scrutiny from external forces.

In conclusion, the ongoing battle against “woke ideology” in higher education has not only impacted the academic freedom of professors but has also jeopardized the fundamental principles of education and intellectual growth. As the debate rages on, it is essential to recognize the value of diverse perspectives and open dialogue in shaping the future of our universities.
