On Academic Free Speech

Christopher Eisgruber in conversation with Tom Ginsburg

Princeton University President and legal scholar Christopher L. Eisgruber is joined by UChicago’s Tom Ginsburg to discuss the common assumptions about free speech on college campuses. Eisgruber argues that most American colleges are largely getting free speech right, with students engaging in active and open debate on difficult and controversial topics. But the real crisis lies in how the condition of university life reflects the polarization of American society and the loss of constructive dialogue across different swathes of the population.
