“They offered us $100,000 to shut up… and then terminated us at 3:30, not even honoring their own deadline.”
Rick Addante returned to Florida Tech from family leave and was given a choice: take the money or keep his soul.
“That night we went home, we felt free. It felt like we got out of Shawshank, without having to pay the price of your soul.”
On what he hopes his kids take away from it: “I hope to give them a lifetime of experiences seeing that their father, their mother, their family does the right thing and doesn’t cave to sacrifice their integrity.”

“We have a duty to help. We have a duty to do the right thing, even if it’s the hard thing, even if it’s a tough thing.”
Rick Addante reflects on Simon of Cyrene, the man pulled from the crowd to carry Christ’s cross during the Passion, and how he found strength in that story when blowing the whistle on Florida Tech.
James O'Keefe adds, “Sometimes the hard thing and the right thing are the same thing, as they say.”

“They tried to silence me… I walked away with no money, but all my integrity.”
Rick Addante, a former NASA neuroscientist and tenured professor, now mows lawns to support his family after refusing to help implement FIT’s DEI plan that sought to undermine government policy—a stand that cost him his career: “We instantly lost our health insurance, our mortgage. My wife has only one kidney.”
On what gives him strength: “I think back to Genesis… you were assigned to toil in the soil now. That gives great strength.”
