(THE COLLEGE FIX) – Nearly six years ago, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education launched a litigation campaign against speech codes.
"Stand Up for Speech" racked up some big wins, including a $650,000 settlement with Chicago State University for trying to shut down a critical faculty blog by claiming it violated cyberbullying and computer use policies.
With threats against faculty speech proliferating, the civil liberties group is starting a legal defense fund specifically for professors at public colleges next month.
