Free Speech and the Modern University: Research, Teaching, and Dialogue
Featuring Sean Stevens and Kenneth Lowande
Free Speech and the Modern University brings together research, faculty perspective, and student dialogue to examine the state of free expression on college campuses. Hosted by the LSA Student Government in partnership with BridgeUmich, this event will feature Sean Stevens, Chief Research Advisor at the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), alongside Professor Kenneth Lowande of the University of Michigan.
The conversation will explore FIRE’s research on free speech at the University of Michigan and across higher education, rising polarization on campuses, the boundaries of free expression inside and outside the classroom, and how students, faculty, and institutions can navigate disagreement in a constructive way. The event will include opening remarks from each speaker, a moderated discussion, and an audience Q&A.
All students are welcome. The goal is not debate for debate’s sake, but thoughtful dialogue across perspectives on an issue that affects campus life and academic inquiry. Please register to RSVP your seat using the link below!
