So Long, 2006: FIRE’s Look Back
As any faithful Torch reader already knows, 2006 was a year of dramatic growth and success for the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. Celebrate with us as we look back on the year that was, remembering some of the incredible victories we’ve won, in our end-of-year press release.
Perhaps FIRE President Greg Lukianoff says it best: “2006 was a year of growth, of change, and of a continued commitment to advancing liberty at our nation’s institutions of higher learning. With the help of our generous supporters and our exceptional staff, we hope to make 2007 another year of reform on campus.”
