Templeton Freedom Award in Pictures

Luke Sheahan

November 21, 2009

As I already noted, last week, the Campus Freedom Network received a Templeton Freedom Award for Student Outreach in a special ceremony at the Atlas Economic Research Foundation Freedom Conference. Brandon, Greg, and I were in attendance. Greg sat on a panel the morning of November 9 with think tank leaders from around the world to discuss "Engaging the Next Generation in the Project of Advancing Liberty." In addition, FIRE Co-founder Alan Charles Kors delivered the keynote address at the Freedom Dinner that evening in commemoration of the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Below are some pictures of the event.

Greg discusses the phenomenon of "unlearning liberty" and how we must engage students who are losing their faith in free speech.
