![NEWS | The University of Alabama issued guidelines for faculty that align with the passage of SB129, a controversial Alabama state law that, among other things, restricts DEI policies and prohibits endorsements of “divisive concepts.” These new guidelines highlight potential interactions with “divisive concepts” and formalize a new list of do’s and don’ts for classroom discussion and instruction.
From the start of the fall semester, SB129’s impact could be felt across campus, from the changes to funding for student organizations to the shuttering of the Safe Zone and offices of the Black Student Union. These outcomes were the result of SB129’s anti-DEI sections, preventing the University from sponsoring or promoting any DEI programs. The consequences of SB129’s “divisive concept” restrictions were more uncertain, however.
“[SB129] is vague, and what its implications will actually look like are not totally clear,” said Beth Ann Powers, an associate member in the University of Cincinnati Law Review.
