Welcome to EvolistFL ("Evolution/Education in Florida").

EvolistFL is a discussion group designed to assist biologists and biology
teachers to combat creationism in the public school system of Florida.
Organized by the American Institute for Biological Sciences and its member
societies, it is moderated and distributed through the Lyris server at the
University of South Florida.

This list-serve is one of many that each represent the different states
(within the U.S.), and is intended to: (1) serve as a support group
for teachers who are on the front line; (2) help educators deal with
students that may have existential conflicts between scientific reality
and religious belief systems; (3) keep abreast of policies up for adoption
by local school boards, state legislatures etc.; and, (4) alert people as
to the need for letters to the editor, letters to legislators, & attending
hearings.

Messages to be distributed can be sent either through web or through
email. In order to distribute messages through email, members should send
messages to:
