Her program, which only employs Reid as a full-time staff member but includes numerous courses taught by professors in other departments, also supports student research projects and offers feminist workshops and talks. Reid told the board that over 40 students enrolled in Introduction to Gender Studies last year. The New College of Florida’s gender studies program is small, graduating two to eight students each year, per the Times. Reid and Keenan were among just three board members who voted against ending the major, which was supported by the university’s interim President Richard Corcoran, who said he would follow the directive. The Washington Post reported in January that Spalding creates a curriculum “that is centered on Western civilization,” which is designed to help “students acquire a mature love for America.” Matthew Spalding, another board member appointed by DeSantis this year, called gender studies “more of an ideological movement and academic discipline” and insisted that faculty simply teach about gender within disciplines like history, psychology, and biology. “And today I’ll add with a nod to Michele Lalande, the poet of Quebec’s “Revolution Tranquille,” ‘I am not alone.’”

“When students ask me about the future of gender studies at New College, I generally reply ‘I am here,’“ Reid said. When Reid offered impassioned remarks about the importance of her program, the Times reports that Rufo could be seen visibly laughing at her.
