Question/Topic: |
What is the Gordon Rule?
|
Answer/Pointer: |
Florida Administrative Code Rule 6A-10.030 is popularly known as the Gordon Rule. Senator Jack Gordon of Miami Beach was the author of the rule.
The original rule states that it becomes effective August 15, 1982. An undated newspaper article in our vertical file states "the rule will first affect freshmen entering a higher education institution in January 1983."
A description of the Gordon Rule requirements is available at the University of Florida Web site
