Alumni Rising

July 6, 2023

The Alumni Free Speech Alliance (AFSA) brings together alumni groups that have a focus on supporting free speech, academic freedom, and viewpoint diversity at their colleges and universities. These principles are critical to the advancement of knowledge and to the very concept of an academic institution. Yet, free speech is increasingly under attack. To preserve the principles and purpose of their institutions, alumni must become involved to make the case for free speech and academic freedom and to provide support for faculty and students who speak up on their campuses.
