The head of one of the most powerful civil rights organizations is urging African American student-athletes to think twice before attending public colleges and universities in Florida.

Earlier this month, the University of Florida closed its Office of the Chief Diversity Officer, eliminating 13 full-time DEI positions and 15 administrative appointments. This came after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill called the Stop Woke Act last year, which prohibits the use of state funds for any DEI programs.

    Believe it or not, not everything is about money. Minority students really do spend time thinking about personal safety when weighing college options.
