NADOHE President Paulette Granberry Russell has talked with various media outlets in response to moves in recent weeks to defund diversity, equity and inclusion efforts Below are excerpts from articles in which Granberry Russell has shared her perspective.

We are beyond disappointed that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a new law (SB 266) that takes direct aim at the work of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in higher education.

These laws will harm students and hurt Florida’s higher education system.
