DeSantis' higher-ed loyalists to outlast his term, cementing ideological overhaul

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, term-limited and leaving office in under four months, has placed loyalists in key university posts to sustain his 'anti-woke' higher-education agenda. The latest appointment, Alex Kelly, former deputy chief of staff, underscores a systematic institutional infiltration. Critics view this as a lasting ideological transformation beyond his tenure, with implications for academic governance and state politics.
