“Rep. @brianeharrison has called for Welsh's termination since January...He called the resignation a ‘historic victory’ that would not have happened without him and warned Texas universities he wasn't done with his pressure campaigns against ‘leftist indoctrination.’” @lilykepner

As our statement in this article indicates, we continue to stand for academic freedom, shared governance, and due process in Texas public universities. These time-honored practices have helped to make Texas universities great. Texas students deserve nothing less. #DefendHigherEd

“As higher ed goes, so goes democracy. But the converse isn’t absolutely true. Higher ed alone cannot save democracy, but we’re a critical part. We need a broader societal movement to save our country.”
