Recently, I published a defense of Ben Sasse’s legacy as president of the University of Florida. The barrage of attacks against him are not substantive, I argued. Rather, they are ex post facto political retribution for his monumental efforts to reform the university.
An important part of the story lay within the political landscape of the University of Florida (UF) itself. In addition to the pressure that Sasse and his administration received from external media and politicized naysayers, they faced an internal threat as well, from disgruntled faculty.
