Texas Tech Protests New Course Review Policies

Texas Tech University students and faculty protest new course review policies, claiming they limit open education and politicize higher learning. The policies, introduced by Chancellor Brandon Creighton, require board oversight of classes discussing race, gender, and sexuality. Protesters argue that students deserve exposure to diverse ideas without external interference, citing the universitys culture of genuine curiosity. Some students in programs like Human Development and Family Sciences face job readiness concerns due to dropped gender studies classes. The issue remains unresolved as the board of regents skipped public discussion on the reviews.
