OKLAHOMA CITY -
Colleges are speaking out about a bill that bans them from requiring their students to have diversity training. Gov. Kevin Stitt signed the bill Friday.
According to House Bill 1775, K-12 schools are prohibited from providing courses that teach a student their race or sex makes them more superior to another person s race or sex.
The bill also says students enrolled in higher education institutions should not be required to attend training that presents any form of race or sex stereotyping or a bias on the basis of race or sex.
“This bill says that we re not going to teach people that because of their race or their sex they are inherently evil for something they had nothing to do with,” Rep. Kevin West, R-Moore said.
OU President Joseph Harroz announced in an email to the OU community Oklahoma House Bill 1775 was signed into law despite the university s âstrong objectionâ to it.
HB 1775, originally an emergency bill regarding medical situations during high school sporting events, was rewritten into a bill implementing restrictions on certain gender and diversity theories being taught in schools.
The university and the OU Student Government Association released statements on Thursday urging Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt to veto the bill.
In the Friday email, Harroz wrote âalthough OUâs mandatory diversity, equity, and inclusion training does not espouse superiority of one race or sex,â the institution is impacted by the passage of the bill.Â
