The school claims that Steven\u2019s videos \u201ccall into question\u201d his ability to \u201cmaintain a classroom environment protecting the mental and emotional well-being of all of [his] students.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>According to a copy of Steven\u2019s suspension obtained by The Daily Wire, the education student will remain suspended from participating in in-school field experiences and courses that have field experiences until he completes a \u201cremediation plan.\u201d The remediation plan includes taking down his Instagram videos, toning down his social media presence, and attending school-sanctioned training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Stevens told The Daily Wire he refuses to take part in \u201cre-education\u201d training.<\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAfter review of all available materials, I find that, based on your continued public stance and social media presence, you do not consistently demonstrate behaviors required by the Conceptual Framework of the School of Education,\u201d the Dean of the School of Education wrote in an email to Stevens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The university claims that Stevens violated the school\u2019s inclusivity doctrine, called the Dignity for All Students Act, which requires teachers to foster \u201ca diverse campus community marked by mutual respect for the unique talents and contributions of each individual.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The Dean also insinuated that future teachers are required to support all aspects of homosexuality and gender identity. During one of his Instagram<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CH6R687JKWm\/?igshid=xgfihz4oa2aq\"><span>videos<\/span><\/a><span>, Stevens said, \u201cA man is a man, a woman is a woman. A man is not a woman and a woman is not a man.\u201d The Dean told Stevens that his scientific stance on biology is \u201cin conflict\u201d with the school\u2019s Dignity for All Students Act.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cYou continue to maintain, \u2018I do not recognize the gender that they claim to be if they are not biologically that gender,\u2019\u201d the Dean said. \u201cThis public position is in conflict with the Dignity for All Students Act requiring teachers to maintain a classroom environment protecting the mental and emotional well-being of all students.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Other videos on Steven\u2019s Instagram page include him explaining how Columbus Day isn\u2019t about celebrating every facet of Christopher Columbus\u2019 life and how race-based clubs can be toxic to racial progress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Stevens told The Daily Wire that he\u2019s received threats from his peers since his videos were uncovered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI\u2019ve received threats and horrible incidents of students who all feel like they are making the world a better place by becoming the woke thought police,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cOverall, I want justice and the right thing to be done.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>According to email correspondence obtained by The Daily Wire, the university also sent out an email to all students and staff condemning Stevens for his posts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cYesterday, I was made aware of a current student\u2019s Instagram posts pertaining to transgender people,\u201d the university\u2019s president wrote. \u201cI want to take this opportunity to publicly restate my deep personal commitment to promoting social justice.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In the same email, the president insinuated that the school would like to take action against Stevens, though it cannot infringe on his First Amendment rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThere are clear legal limitations to what a public university can do in response to objectionable speech,\u201d the president wrote. \u201cAs a result, there are few tools at our disposal to reduce the pain that such speech may cause.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In a statement to The Daily Wire, a SUNY Geneseo spokeswoman said that the school does not believe that it is infringing on any student\u2019s right to free speech.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cAlthough we cannot comment on any particular student, SUNY Geneseo respects every student\u2019s right to freedom of speech and expression,\u201d the spokeswoman said. \u201cBy choosing to enter into certain professional fields, students agree to abide by the professional standards of their chosen field. At times, these professional standards dictate that students act and behave in certain ways that may differ from their personal predilections.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The school has openly promoted left-wing ideology in its departments in the past, despite its claims that political ideology should remain outside of the classroom. In an<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CKhCLwmA6NU\/?igshid=sahh5z2xnugx\"><span>Instagram post<\/span><\/a><span>, the education school promoted a resource guide for faculty, staff, and teacher-candidates to become \u201canti-racist\u201d educators.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
