Harvard establishes faculty-led 'council on academic freedom' focused on free speech

A former law professor said university officials need to enforce their own policies after students and educators heckled a judge and stopped his remarks.

"We also intend to inform new faculty about Harvard’s commitments to free speech and the resources available to them when it is threatened," the."We will encourage the adoption and enforcement of policies that protect academic freedom. When an individual is threatened or slandered for a scholarly opinion, which can be emotionally devastating, we will lend our personal and professional support.

It’s no better for the students, a majority of whom say that the campus climate prevents them from saying things they believe," they said. added that any community that is"repressing disagreement" is"doomed" and likely to"chain itself to error."

Universities, Ivy League in particular, are brainwashing students for far left ideologies. Soft people create hard times…

Hillsdale, sure. Pretty much any other college, nah.

Harvard should focus on fixing their 3rd world kidney transplant performance. Born and live and MA and had mine out of state because of this. They care more about ideology than performance.
