Campus Violence and the Free Speech Debate

  April 3, 2017, 12:00 PM-1:00 PM

  John Locke Foundation, 200 W. Morgan Street, 2nd Floor, Raleigh, North Carolina 27601


Care about free speech on college campuses? Recent episodes across the country illustrate that some campus administrators are indifferent to ensuring a robust marketplace of ideas and, instead, indulge those who seek to shut down views and events with which they disagree. In this presentation, Robert Shibley will discuss the latest examples of this intolerance, how North Carolina universities rank in their commitment to protecting free speech, and the work of his organization to ensure that no voices are silenced. Below is video from the event.
