106. Defund Political Correctness, Fund and Support Western Civilization Instruc
We believe colleges and universities should reject diversity as understood by the Left and instead promote diversity of thought in order to reverse the Left-wing politicization of higher education. We support the following perspectives and actions at Texas colleges, universities, and secondary schools:
a) Like Hillsdale College, we agree that state universities “should value the merit of each unique individual, rather than succumbing to the discriminatory trend of so-called social justice and multicultural diversity, which judges individuals not as individuals, but as members of a group which pits one group against other competing groups in divisive power struggles.”
b) We oppose any state funding or graduation requirements for divisive curricula inconsistent with the above, including Marxist, anti-American, Critical Race Theory (CRT), multiculturalism, Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), or diversity, equity, and inclusion courses.
c) We oppose using public funds for homosexuality, transgender, or diversity, equity, and inclusion centers, employees, or programs.
d) Public universities should be required to create a comprehensive program of instruction in Western Civilization, American Institutions, national and state heritage, Keynesian versus Austrian economics, and free-market liberty principles. Successful participation in this program should be required for graduation.
