Florida’s beloved New College, a beacon of tolerance in an increasingly right-wing state, is taken over by Governor Ron de Santis, who brutally targets academic freedom and cultural diversity. A test bed for a conservative takeover of “woke” universities across the US is bravely and entertainingly fought by a ragtag coalition of students and tutors.
