Media Reviews
“This extraordinary collection, which illuminates both the importance of free inquiry and the complexity of the university’s role in contemporary American life, is a model of how to shed light rather than just heat on a controversial subject. Its breadth and depth make it simply essential reading.” -- Yuval Levin, The American Enterprise Institute
“The willingness to pursue truth even at the price of abandoning deeply held beliefs is the hallmark of intellectual heroism. Free Speech and Intellectual Diversity in Higher Education illuminates the contours of the current debates over freedom of speech, and it models intellectual diversity in the range of opinions it represents. It is essential reading for those who embrace the discipline and responsibility of citizenship in a free society. It is testimony to the extraordinary achievement of the School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership that has since its founding provided a home for such discourse.” -- Michael Poliakoff, President, American Council of Trustees and Alumni
