UF presidential search is getting underway (U Michigan prez is the sole candidate) update- merged

Just great. Steube and Rufo weighing in.
I am SO SICK of hearing "woke" and DEI being thrown around. Here's why: As an alum, and with many friends who are alums and/or staff, not a one of us has ever been exposed to institutional "indoctrination" of the sort I keep hearing about from conservatives and MAGA.
What we DID absorb at UF was mostly a culture of open-mindedness, intellectual curiosity and acceptance / tolerance of people different from ourselves -- all attending UF with a common goal, to pursue higher education and gain greater awareness and knowledge of the world we inhabit as well as train for careers.
If that is "woke", then I guess there's no need for any higher education at all. Just use Google, AI, or your nearest echo chamber to shape your world.
SAD.

 

We previously just hired the most political UF president of all time. Literally the dude left politics to take the job and brought his political cronies with him. Now, the same morons that hired an unqualified political hack who failed are dissecting the nuanced positions of a clearly qualified candidate? I hate what we have become.

 

I don't know man. I got some strong indoctrination on free market economics as a finance major.

 

Can’t we wait until after football season to decide if it’s a good hire?

 

Rufo is a cancer I can’t wait until he gets bored and leaves Florida.

 

Santa Ono Should Not Be University of Florida President

This guy is such a whiner. He’s so openly partisan with such an obvious agenda he should have no credibility left.

 

Haven't been on Too Hot for years. I see it's still a bastion of liberal garbage it was 20 years ago. Ono won't last 2 years.

 

Oh so slightly longer than Sasse? That was suuuuch a great pick. God forbid Florida selects an experienced academic president.
