With the intolerant academic left working ceaselessly to stifle speech that disputes the “progressive” agenda, it’s good news when college leaders fight back.
In today’s Martin Center article, Jenna Robinson notes that Heterodox Academy has just recognized UNC-Chapel Hill and UNC-Charlotte for their efforts at protecting free speech on their campuses.
She quotes the president of Heterodox Academy, Professor John Tomasi: “Both schools are members of HxA’s fast-growing Campus Community Network. More than mere members, however, HxA’s chapters at UNC and Charlotte have become role models for advocates of academic freedom on campuses across the country and around the world. Jointly awarding [a] 2023 Open Inquiry Award to these two campuses is our way of expressing our admiration for the work they do.”
The Martin Center salutes the leaders at both schools for striving to preserve free speech and open inquiry on their campuses.
