The Texas A&M University System Board of Regents ordered an audit Tuesday of courses at all 12 schools in the system as institutional leaders face conservative backlash over a professor’s teaching of gender identity in a children’s literature class.
"This isn’t about academic freedom; it’s about academic responsibility," Welsh wrote. "Our degree programs and courses go through extensive approval processes, and we must ensure that what we ultimately deliver to students is consistent with what was approved."
The announcements come one day after State Rep. Brian Harrison, R-Midlothian, posted a video on X, formerly known as Twitter, showing a student telling an unnamed Texas A&M professor that they are not sure that their presentation on gender and sexuality is legal because there are only two genders according to President Donald Trump.
“This also very much goes against not only myself but a lot of people’s religious beliefs,” the student said before being asked to leave. “I am not going to participate in this because it’s not legal, and I don’t want to promote something that is against our president’s laws as well as against my religious beliefs."
