College Board won't recognize AP Psych courses in Florida

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : We applaud the College Board for maintaining the integrity of their course in the face of state intimidation, and we implore the state of Florida to end its assault on public education," Meehan said in the statement.
44% : The College Board, which operates the Advanced Placement program, announced Thursday that it will not recognize AP Psychology courses taught in Florida public high schools because the state Department of Education is requiring that psychology courses omit lessons on gender identity and sexual orientation.
44% : Material on gender identity and sexual orientation has been part of the AP Psychology course for 30 years, but it will not be recognized as Advanced Placement and cannot be designated AP Psychology on student transcripts under the Florida restrictions, the College Board statement said.
