Florida A&M University student Aaliyah Steward, who is in her last year at the school’s College of Law, said the school required her to censor promotional material that the Black Law Students Association was using to advertise its Black History Month activities. Notably, Steward said, “We couldn’t use the word ‘Black’ in Black History Month. We need to abbreviate it.”

Steward also said the university objected to other terms, including “affirmative action” and “women.”

The university did not deny Steward’s claim, saying in a statement, “Florida A&M University has consistently been in full compliance with Senate Bill 266 and Board of Governors’ Regulation 9.016.” The university stated, “We support and have implemented the policy direction established by the Governor, the Legislature, and the Board of Governors as it relates to DEI, and consistent with related federal court rulings.”
