Digest
HB 2548 prohibits public institutions of higher education from requiring students to take courses that incorporate certain concepts related to race, gender, and social justice as part of their general education or degree requirements. It also bans institutions from using state funds to support such courses. The bill provides exemptions for degree programs explicitly focused on racial, ethnic, or gender studies but ensures that such courses are not used to satisfy general education requirements. Additionally, it prohibits faculty from being required to attend diversity-related training or workshops and mandates compliance reporting by universities.
