Traditionally, the university or college is thought to be the
ultimate location for the discovery and sharing of knowledge. After
all, on these campuses are some of the great minds across all
fields, as well as students who are not only eager to learn, but
who often contribute to our shared wisdom. For those ideals to be
achieved, however, ideas require access to some kind of virtual
marketplace from which people can sample and consider them, discuss
and debate them. Restricting the expression of those ideas for
whatever reason is the enemy of not only this process, but also of
knowledge discovery. Speech freedom on our college and university
campuses, like everywhere else, is fragile. There are those who
wish to suppress it, more often than not when the words express
ideas, opinions, and even facts that conflict with their beliefs.
Why is this effort, so completely at odds with the foundational
values of this country, made? This topic explored in Speech Freedom
on Campus: Past, Present and Future is multi-layered, and its
analysis is best accomplished through multiple perspectives. Joseph
Russomanno's edited collection does precisely that, utilizing 10
different scholars to examine various aspects and issues related to
speech freedom on campus.
