Florida students ignore lawmakers' free speech survey; expert calls response rate dismal

[In It to Win It]

Survey says: University students have little interest in participating in a campus intellectual freedom viewpoint diversity survey mandated by the Florida Legislature and Gov. Ron DeSantis.

A draft of the findings of a poll required by a 2021 law was presented to the Board of Governors of the State University System Friday though there was little discussion.

A lawsuit challenging the measure is currently before the U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeal, after federal Judge Mark Walker in April allowed the survey to be e-mailed to 368,0120 students enrolled at the state’s 12 university campuses.

Fewer than 9,000 students, or 2.4% of students responded to the survey required by HB 233.

1. Guarantee my grandson

at Florida gulf coast university didn’t. And he’s probably a better citizen than most of his friends at the University because he votes. I know this for a fact because he and I early voted two weeks ago together. But taking the time for surveys and that kind of stuff especially if DeSatan’s name is connected to it? No way Jose.

There would be Repercussions if they weren't answered to their satisfaction? Like no more money for their School?

There was a time in Florida when you couldn't graduate without taking the 9 week Americanism vs. Communism class.
