Filmmaker Andrew Marcus Will Speak at CFN Student Conference

The Campus Freedom Network is proud to announce that documentary producer and filmmaker Andrew Marcus will run a session on new media at the CFN student conference. Andrew is a longtime friend of FIRE. He has produced Political Correctness vs. Freedom of Thought—The Keith John Sampson Story about FIRE's case at Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis, where student Keith John Sampson was found guilty of racial harassment for reading an anti-Klan book.
