Higgins said the perception problem isn’t new. What’s different now, in his view, is how aggressively #USF is trying to outgrow it. “We can’t control the narrative that [people] may have in their head, but we can work really hard to defeat that narrative,” he said.

One #USF professor said the changes show a growing push by state leaders to limit how some topics like inequality are taught. “Open and free conversation should be the standard,” they said. “Any attempts to legally control that strikes me as uneducated and un-American.”
