Faculty Attitudes Toward Regulating Speech on College Campuses.
Dey, Eric L.; Hurtado, Sylvia
Review of Higher Education, v20 n1 p15-32 Fall 1996
This study used data from a 1992-93 national survey of college teaching faculty (n=29,771) to examine attitudes toward institutional attempts to regulate racist and sexist on-campus speech. Most faculty supported prohibition of hate speech but were less likely to support administrators' right to ban extreme speakers. Unanticipated patterns were found. Implications for policy formation are considered. (MSE)
