Jefferson Symposium: Free Speech and Equal Dignity

In the second episode of our four-part series titled "Free Speech on Campuses", we hear from three esteemed panelists. The first is Susan Brison, Professor of Philosophy at Dartmouth College, who explores the philosophical perspectives surrounding the importance (and perceived importance) of the right to free expression. Secondly, UVa. History Professor Claudrena Harold brings the Free Speech issue home with a short and fascinating history of political resistance at the University of Virginia. Finally, UVa Law Professor Leslie Kendrick outlines the basic misconceptions that may lead the debate surrounding free expression astray. This episode is brought to you by the Scripps Howard Foundation.
