Subject: RE: BS: Arizona law targeting ethnic studies
Art,

I disagree: "As I read that, section 15-112A3 specifically bans such programs as Black history, Hispanic studies and the like, since those programs are intended for students from those groups "


The law states in section E.
E. THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED TO RESTRICT OR PROHIBIT:
....
3. COURSES OR CLASSES THAT INCLUDE THE HISTORY OF ANY ETHNIC GROUP AND THAT ARE OPEN TO ALL STUDENTS, "


So, as long as they are OPEN to all students, they are allowed.
