Restricts “DEI-CRT content” (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – Critical Race Theory Content) in university coursework. Ensures students are not required to take DEI-CRT related classes. It allows faculty to teach DEI-CRT content but prevents universities from mandating content in degree programs.
Unlike other DEI in universities bills, SB 846 targets DEI-CRT content in coursework.
