by

FIRE

June 4, 2008

Tonight, at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., FIRE Co-Founder and Chairman Emeritus Alan Charles Kors will receive a prestigious Bradley Prize for his inspiring defense of free speech and his scholarship. When the award was announced, Michael W. Grebe, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Bradley Foundation, said, "In these times, free-thinking students have had no greater champion than Dr. Kors." It bears repeating that FIRE would not be here today without Alan's commitment to the basic principles of liberty. Congratulations to Alan on this well-deserved honor.
