- Florida suit against college accreditation process dismissed, again
A federal appeals court dismissed Florida's lawsuit challenging the college accreditation process, rejecting the state's claim that private accreditors hold unconstitutional power over university operations. The case, led by Gov. Ron DeSantis, argued that accreditation agencies override state policies on diversity and university governance, but the court affirmed prior rulings that accreditors do not exercise governmental authority.
