A Texas A&M professor sent a few emails about Black History Month. Months later, a conservative outlet published some of those messages. Amid the fallout, she resigned.

Scoop: Two years ago, a Western civ center got started on UF's campus.
Now, six profs are under investigation to determine if they "interfered" with its plans.
And at least one department chair was asked to pledge to cooperate with the center:
