The beginning of the story of the book banning is important. It has arisen out of challenges to remove false history (such as the Civil War was about "state's rights") and to add anti-racism to the curriculum. In response, we have this right-wing shit storm about feelings. The end result? A stalemate which is exactly what the right wants. Universities may have become liberal bastions but that is certainly not true with most secondary education. In fact, do conservatives ever consider that Universities are as liberal as they are in part because students learn that much of the conservative bullshit they learn in high school was false or at least misleading? I know that helped develop my politics.
