The school claims that Stevens\u2019 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><\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>According to the reinstatement documents obtained by The Daily Wire, Stevens must review the state\u2019s \u201cGuidance&nbsp; to School Districts for Creating a Safe and Support School Environment For Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students\u201d documents, and must \u201cself-monitor\u201d his social media posts to \u201censure that he presents himself in a professional manner.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The school initially mandated that Stevens partake in what he called \u201cre-education\u201d training. SUNY Geneseo claimed that Stevens would remain suspended from participating in in-school field experiences and courses that have field experiences until he completes a \u201cremediation plan.\u201d The plan included taking down Instagram videos, toning down his social media presence, and attending school-sanctioned training.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The university claimed that Stevens had violated its inclusivity doctrine, which requires teachers to foster a \u201cdiverse campus community marked by mutual respect for the unique talents and contributions of each individual.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In Steven\u2019s initial suspension letter the school\u2019s Dean insinuated that future teachers are required to support all aspects of homosexuality and gender identity. Stevens had failed to do so when he said in an Instagram video that \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 scientific stance of biology was considered \u201cin conflict\u201d with state and school rules.<\/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 in a letter to Stevens. \u201cThis public position is in conflict with the [state\u2019s] 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>Stevens told The Daily Wire that despite the suspension lift, he still plans on taking legal action against the school.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThis is a huge victory for us \u2026 but we need to push back so that destructive policies leave our universities,\u201d Stevens said. \u201cWe are still planning legal action \u2026 The much larger issue is that the university will almost always back down in the face of negative media attention. Going the legal route will provide legal precedent in order to challenge their policies in court.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
