FIRE surveyed 409 schools for this report and found that over 62 percent maintain severely restrictive, “red-light” speech codes—policies that clearly and substantially prohibit protected speech.
FIRE publishes an annual speech code report that condenses the research in our Spotlight database into a snapshot of the state of free speech on college campuses.
