Greg Lukianoff on Private Colleges and Free Speech at ‘RealClearReligion’
Writing for RealClearReligion today, FIRE President Greg Lukianoff has a succinct response to complaints that FIRE is "too easy" on sectarian universities:
As an atheist, I would not attend Liberty University. And as an advocate of freedom of speech, I would not attend a college that does not uphold, in word and in deed, the protections of the First Amendment. But as someone who loves the diversity of our country, I fully believe in and support the right of such colleges to exist.
