The first publicly operated Christian College in the Florida system of higher Ed. Their new college motto, "Screw Biology, God did it."

FSU will be next!

And now UCC churches in Florida are speaking out against the current destruction, more power to them.

couple hundred students. DeSantis and Rs will steamroll this thing, regardless of protests and media attention. It's what they want! Its the right sized cultural battleground to assert power and prove a point. I just can't figure out if the end game is to shut down or remake in their image. Sad. Sarasota County has always been red, but had cultural leanings that kept an air of proressiveness about it. But this stunt and the AWFUL school board takeover has turned this county into a MAGA cesspool. And MAGA retirees continue to stream in at record numbers. Blech!
