Collins says Regents should have been governing universities
Iowa House Republican Taylor Collins, chair of the Higher Education Committee, accuses the state Board of Regents of failing to govern Iowa’s three public universities. He notes lawmakers have introduced bills to curb diversity and CRT teaching, create a School of Intellectual Freedom, and require a course on American institutions for graduation, arguing the legislature must act when the regents do not.
