Texas A&M System bans faculty from promoting race or gender ideology without presidential approval, effective spring 2026.
Texas A&M University System regents have adopted a policy requiring faculty to get presidential approval before discussing race, gender, sexual orientation, or gender identity in courses, banning advocacy of "race or gender ideology" as defined by concepts assigning guilt by ancestry or separating gender identity from biological sex.
The rule applies to all 12 institutions and takes effect immediately, with enforcement beginning in spring 2026.
It follows a controversial classroom incident involving gender identity in a children’s literature course, which led to faculty firings and leadership changes.
Critics warn the policy threatens academic freedom and free speech, while supporters say it ensures factual, non-advocacy instruction.
The move aligns with a broader state effort to restrict such topics in K-12 education.
