FIRE President to Speak at American University Tonight
FIRE President Greg Lukianoff will speak tonight at American University. The title of Greg's speech is "Unlearning Liberty," in which he will discuss the threats to liberty on campus. Greg will also explain how administrative censorship teaches students to choose censorship instead of discussion to combat ideas with which they disagree.
Tonight's lecture is co-sponsored by The Kennedy Political Union and American University Students for Liberty. Greg's speech will take place at the Mary Graydon Center #3 at 6:00 pm EST.
