ICYMI: Jeffrey Sachs and @JeremyCYoung explain how legislators are trying to mandate institutional neutrality on universities, and what that means for free speech. pen.org/government-man…
Keynote Speaker Jeremy C. Young PEN America just shared some invaluable tips on supporting and incorporating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) during challenging times. #JEDISummit #InclusionForAll
Devastating takedown of the logic of SB202 PEN America: 'Simply put, SB202 incentivizes bad teaching...the smart professor won’t teach students a variety of political or ideological viewpoints. Rather, [the goal] will be to convince them that she has checked every box.' Repeal!
New from me and Jeremy C. Young over at PEN America: Lawmakers are trying to legislative 'neutrality' onto higher ed. It is not going well.
You're going to want to read this one. For PEN America, Jeffrey Sachs and I argue that government-mandated campus neutrality laws -- like Indiana's new SB 202 -- inevitably create not neutrality, but government censorship. pen.org/government-man…
Jeffrey Aaron Snyder and I wrote for The Chronicle of Higher Education about how preparing students for citizenship is central to the mission of higher ed. As always thanks to Len Gutkin for his expert editing.

Congratulations to Katie Blankenship and Sophia Brown for a great report and a successful Florida legislative session!
A devastating, tragic must-read by Roy S. Johnson about how 'DEI died in Alabama, essentially, due to a litany of unsubstantiated anecdotes, hypotheticals, and unfounded fears' -- all at the hands of one man. al.com/opinion/2024/0…
