Faux anti-corporate warrior Ron DeSantis has has done more to enable utility companies to raise rates and insurance companies, to fleece consumers than all his predecessors combined. That’s quite an accomplishment.

Still waiting on this request.
This is how the DeSantis Admin operates. I emailed their Legislative Director for the BOT Applications for his six new @NewCollegeofFL appointees (which have to be approved by the FL Senate) & instead of emailing them to me, they're treating it like a formal records request.
Tired: The Long March through the institutions Wired: The Great Leap Forward through the institutions
New College president Patricia Okker has been terminated.
I bet if I was a Republican lawmaker they would have let me in.
If anyone wants to design a room to limit public attendance this is definitely how you would do it. And yes— this is as close @NewCollegeofFL staff & security would let me get to the BOT meeting. I guess they’re scared of me 👻
“DeSantis Board appointees of @NewCollegeofFL are NOT here to improve higher ed. They are NOT here to improve student enrollment. They’re here to launch a hostile right wing takeover of our state colleges and universities.”#yourcampusisnext
We're 1.5 hours into 2 hour meeting and so far there's no discussion of massive changes that are being proposed for the school. That part of the agenda is coming up, but unless they extend the meeting there's not much time to discuss.
New College President Patricia Okker delivering her report. A lot of interest in what she says with her job on the line. So far she’s touting various college students and programs.
1st effort by new New College trustee to assert authority fails. Eddie Speir tried to remove item from consent agenda that college officials said was routine. One said $900,000 in funding is at stake. Bauerlein and Anderson - 2 new trustees - opposed along with board holdovers
DeSantis holding a press conference in Bradenton to tout his higher education reform plans on same day his revamped New College board is meeting to start overhaul of school.
