University of Florida College of Medicine pushes students into ‘destructive’ wake-up program, report says

EXCLUSIVE: The University of Florida College of Medicine is incorporating aspects of critical race theory into its admissions and educational programs, according to a new report obtained exclusively by Fox News Digital.

The report by Do No Harm, a group of medical workers against divisive racial policies in medicine, says the college is using ‘equity’ initiatives to train a new generation of ‘anti-racists’ in medical fields – two terms central to critical race theory. These initiatives include active recruitment of “underrepresented groups,” suggested readings on diversity and equity for aspiring students, and a code of ethics that outlines how to combat implicit bias.

The College of Medicine “indoctrinates its medical graduates in divisive philosophies and other forms of social justice activism. The conditioning begins from the moment a prospective student begins to explore UFCOM, continues throughout throughout the admissions process and persists throughout the doctoral program.”

“New students encounter the doctrine of diversity, equity and inclusion early and often in the many interactions they have with the many health equity offices and diversity councils on campus,” said said the report, authored by Laura Morgan, MSN, RN. “The University of Florida invests abundant resources in these programs and retains administrators and faculty members who are paid to promote these destructive ideas.”

The admissions office’s webpage shows a photo of masked students kneeling, raising their fists and displaying a poster reading “#WHITECOATSFORBLACKLIVES,” the report said.

“We strive to create a thoughtful, informed and inclusive admissions culture dedicated to building a diverse community of future physicians who share a commitment to excellence and equity in healthcare,” says the UFCOM admission page.

This “Black Lives Matter” statement on the webpage links to “Resources for Combating Systemic Racism,” which includes a reading titled “Guidelines for Being a Strong White Ally.”

The college’s diversity statement suggests it prefers minority staff and students saying it “actively improves the recruitment and retention of underrepresented groups in its student body, residency training programs, faculty and its staff positions”. Dr. Donna M. Parker, associate dean for diversity and health equity at the college, said there is a need to help doctors overcome their biases against underrepresented groups.

“As physicians, we need to overcome our biases by realizing this,” Parker said. “We are sworn to provide the best patient care. This should be for all patients.”

The college dean’s office did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The report on the University of Florida College of Medicine was released days after a federal court struck down a Florida law that sought to prohibit public universities from imposing “a condition of employment, membership, certification, license, accreditation or passing an examination”. a specific identity as superior or inferior. The judge ruled that the law violated First Amendment rights for professors and called those professors “priests of democracy.”

The university’s George A. Smathers Libraries, used by medical students, has a diversity, equity and inclusion team. One of the libraries named a section after Karl Marx, but deleted the name after facing backlash from the public.

The school has an Inclusive General Hiring Badge credential which is earned by completing 14 diversity courses and has a “goal to improve the integrity and efficiency of the search and selection process.”
