A bill for an act prohibiting land acknowledgments by regents institutions.

This bill requires Iowa's state board of regents to direct all public universities and colleges under its control to adopt policies banning official land acknowledgments by the institutions or their departments. It directly affects regents institutions (like public universities) by prohibiting their use of land acknowledgments in official communications or actions. The bill explicitly exempts classroom discussions, academic research, and personal statements made by individuals not speaking on behalf of the institution. It does not restrict land acknowledgments in teaching or research settings, only in official institutional capacity.
