free speech on campus: tom alter’s firing and the attack on higher education

March 10, 4:00–5:30 P.M.

DAMEN CINEMA, ARNOLD J. DAMEN, S.J. STUDENT CENTER

Hosted by LUC AAUP

Universities across the country are facing renewed scrutiny over faculty speech, governance, and institutional responsibility. This conversation will explore the meaning of academic freedom, tenure, and due process in today’s political climate. Historian Tom Alter will reflect on his recent experience, followed by responses from Loyola faculty and a student perspective.

Together, panelists will consider what universities owe their communities and how academic freedom sustains the university’s intellectual mission in moments of public controversy.
