FIRE at Campaign for Liberty Conference
Sean Clark, FIRE's Director of Finance and Operations, and I will be at the Campaign for Liberty's Northeast Regional Conference outside of Philadelphia today and tomorrow. We'll be passing out FIRE's Guides to Student Rights on Campus, signing students up for the Campus Freedom Network and concerned citizens for our mailing list, and otherwise getting the word out about the threats to liberty on America's college and university campuses. We'd like to meet some of our local supporters. If you're at the conference, please swing by our table and say hello.
