💨 Abstract

Santa Ono, former president of the University of Michigan, was rejected by the Florida Board of Governors for the University of Florida presidency due to his past support for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The board voted 10-6 against him, despite the University of Florida Board of Trustees' unanimous approval. Ono faced criticism from conservative figures over his stance on various ideological issues.
