PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Republican Gov. Kristi Noem is opening a hotline for complaints about South Dakota colleges and universities. Noem announced the hotline Friday. In a letter to the state’s Board of Regents, Noem said information from the hotline will guide policy changes. She’s also calling on the Board of Regents to ban drag shows, remove references to preferred pronouns in school materials, and increase graduation rates. Noem says liberal beliefs are poisoning colleges and she doesn’t want that to happen in South Dakota. An Associated Press request for comment to the regents wasn’t immediately returned Friday.
