The Academic Freedom Podcast #12 on Encouraging Campus Free Expression
A conversation with Dan Cullen about the Academic Leaders Task Force on Campus Free Expression
A new episode of The Academic Freedom Podcast from the Academic Freedom Alliance is now available. Subscribe through your favorite platform so you don't miss an episode.
In this episode I talk with Dan Cullen, a professor of philosophy at Rhodes College and director of the Project for the Study of Liberal Democracy. He was a member of the Academic Leaders Task Force on Campus Free Expression. The task force was assembled by the Bipartisan Policy Center and recently released its report, Campus Free Expression: A New Roadmap. We talk about the challenges for free expression on college campuses, the responsibilities of various campus officials in building a better campus climate for free speech, and the recommendations in the report.

The responsibilities of campus officials? Is that a joke? The first responsibility of campus officials would be a desire to support free speech, and that is utterly lacking. I mean, you cannot seriously be claiming that Ellen Cosgrove supports a climate that supports free expression.
Do these podcasts review mandamusing the Non-Profit Office of the IRS to de-exempt these treason indoctrination camps, and litigation for fraud against accrediting agencies for allowing indoctrination instead of the promised education? If not, stop wasting time.
