Report: Education Works Best With Free Exchange of Ideas

The Center and our coalition, Free Exchange on Campus, released a new report called “Campus Voices.” Throughout the spring, our staff has been on the ground speaking with faculty and students in Pennsylvania about the “Academic Bill of Restrictions.” The report finds that students and faculty learn and teach best when they have access to a free exchange of ideas, unencumbered by restrictions. For more information, read the report.

Get Expert Help:
The Center for Campus Free Speech can provide a variety of services:

Legal Advice - The Center works with a network of First Amendment scholars and is happy to provide legal guidance on a wide range of First Amendment issues.

Organizing Expertise - The Center employs a professional organizer to work with students, professors, and administrators to run campaigns to defeat censorship and affirm campus free speech.

Bring the Center to Your Campus - One of the best ways to protect and to promote free speech on campus is to bring a Center representative to your college or university. On campus, Center for Campus Free Speech staff can run trainings on issues ranging from student fees to speech zones to academic freedom in order to ensure that all students understand their First Amendment rights and know how to protect those rights.

Legal Representation - In addition to providing legal guidance, the Center can also help students find legal representation when their free speech rights have been violated.

To take advantage of any of these services, please contact us at 312-291-0396.
