This comprehensive one-stop resource examines the history,
development, and present state of affairs concerning free speech
issues on college campuses, including fair and impartial
representations of conservative and liberal perspectives. This book
provides a comprehensive and authoritative resource for
understanding the issue of free speech at American institutions of
higher learning. It explains such concepts and forces as academic
freedom, intellectual benefits of open debate, using speech as a
weapon of hate and harassment, and the history of campus social
protest. It also provides an impartial survey of the arguments and
rhetoric-as well as the actual record-of America's two major
parties on campus free speech and academic freedom issues. Other
focuses of coverage include major laws and commonly employed
college and university policies governing free speech and civil
liberties for students, faculty, and other employees on campuses
and classrooms across the country. This book accomplishes all of
the above via a combination of informative resources-tables and
graphs, primary documents, biographical profiles, illuminating
essays, a chronology, and more-that are the trademark of the
Contemporary World Issues series. Includes graphs, charts, and
primary documents offering different contextual vantage points for
