University students are America's future leaders in business, science, politics, philanthropy, and education. It is essential that universities provide for them an environment where the pursuit of truth and open inquiry are uninhibited. They must be exposed to differing ideas, engage in civil debate, and learn to appreciate America's tradition of respect for free expression and peaceful dissent. The pursuit of truth requires that all spaces are open for conversation, that the quest for knowledge is unbridled, and the path to truth is free from the hurdles of speech codes and restrictive policies. Over the last decade, the campus intellectual climate has deteriorated. Free speech issues are at the forefront of campus politics, with threats to free speech increasing worldwide. Public universities and colleges are bound by first amendment protections of free speech and many private institutions make bold promises of unfettered free expression. This report recommends that states or universities adopt policies take steps to protect freedom of speech and expression on campus.
