The Board of Regents has restricted teaching of race, gender, and sexual orientation at one of the country’s largest public universities…. The new filings include statements from eight professors, who work in departments as diverse as English, women’s and gender studies, sociology, fine arts, history, and government & public service, and allege that a diverse array of critical materials have been banned from their classrooms, impacting their ability to teach. They also describe difficulty parsing what is allowed under the vague policy, causing them to self-censor out of fear; others describe how the policy has been weaponized against LGBTQ+ content
