The article explains that some students have taken on this task. But, it's still terrible that these resources have been destroyed for the school community.

@cinebox @futurebird @alexwild In the dumpster they are legally abandoned property. The only way they could charge anyone for even loading all of them into a rescue truck is for passing any "no trespassing" signs.

This legality is the reason cops are allowed to fish in your trash for interesting things, and the same law suggests fishing in that dumpster for interesting books.

The mass book dumping is missing only the flames and swastika armbands of 1930's style Nazi book burnings. This is the first stage in a likely mass transfer of higher education in Florida to ownership by churches. The most common churches here are Southern Baptists.

If the Black churches were able to get control of a major university though, DeSantis would have no further voice against it and would be powerless to stop DEI classes from becoming degree requirements etc. That would go along way towards getting rid of things like College Repugnicans and that sort of thing. DeSantis would not like getting credit for that one.
