Article warning of increasing threats to academic freedom, and in particular, the regulation of speech that may offend students and of conduct that does not conform to the institution's mission. I am in favour of academic freedom, of course, and believe that academics should have a wide latitude constrained only by criminal law to express and argue for their beliefs. What makes me radical is that I believe this freedom ought to extend to everyone. Via ArtsJournal newsletter.
