University of California at Irvine: Suppression of Affirmative Action Bake Sale
Case MaterialsMedia Coverage- "Fraternities Must Stand Up to Schools' Squelching Free Speech," Greg Lukianoff and Matthew Vasconcellos, The Daily Journal, October 11, 2004:
While there is no shortage of free-speech battles on college campuses, fraternities have the dubious honor of being at the center of many of the least-sympathetic controversies.
- "Practical Advice for Fraternities Caught in the Battle for Free Speech on Campus," Matthew Vasconcellos and Greg Lukianoff, Fraternal Law, September 16, 2004: In this month’s issue of Fraternal Law, FIRE Legal Director Greg Lukianoff and legal researcher Matt Vasconcellos offer important advice to fraternities that find themselves (often unwillingly) involved in the battle for free speech on campus.
- "The Philadelphia Inquirer, USA Today, and the Pasadena Star-News on FIRE," March 3, 2004: Universities still do not comprehend that their contempt for free speech places them far, far outside of the mainstream of American public opinion. In particular, they seem continually surprised that the media, who live or die by the Bill of Rights, understand freedom of expression full well. The March 1 lead editorial of The Philadelphia Inquirer, an editorial in today's USA Today, and yet another editorial in the Pasadena Star-News offer a compelling textbook education, if academic administrators are willing to listen, in the relationship of higher education and freedom of speech.
