Liberals, Conservatives, and the Climate of Fear: How Campus Free Speech is Failing and How It Can Be Saved

 Featured Speaker
Professor John Hasnas
Georgetown University McDonough School of Business
Georgetown University Law Center

A key issue universities face is whether and how to regulate campus speech. Campus administrators often adopt speech policies that are opposed by students and professors and that generate criticism by political actors and the general public. What is the best approach to regulating (or not) campus speech? At this event, John Hasnas will present and defend his provocative proposal to resolve decades of disputes over campus expression.       

Lunch will be provided for attendees.
